I have previously implemented /etc/shutdown.d and /usr/local/etc/shutdown.d
to avoid the confusion about what happens when /etc/rc.shutdown
calls "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh stop" and the old apache.sh doesn't
check $1 and starts up instead.

I also had patches to about a dozen ports to install shutdown scripts,
but I suspect they are long out of date now.

Cheers,
