In second case it should say something like "Unable to find where
${rcvar} was set". Now it adds ${rcvar}=3DYES to last included file in
both cases. This still should correctly enable or disable some service
unless /etc/rc.subr was modified to include some another file later,
but, as I understood, this is what was meant by "corner case
handling".
