Is there any particular reason that start_if is evaluated before the 
primary ifconfig stmt in rc.conf?

I have been using the rc.conf to set the 'primary' address of a web server 
and then using start_if to set all the aliases.
Unfortunately, due to the order of evaluation of the start_if file and 
the primary ifconfig stmt in rc.conf the result is that the first alias
stmt in start_if is deleted/negated.
