Quite possibly. I just cvsupped last night (moving from 4.1 RC0
to 4.1-STABLE), and mergemaster showed quite a few changes to many
startup scripts to make them test variables in rc.conf that they did
not previously test. If you didn't take those changes, then it
doesn't matter if you took the new rc.conf, because the old startup
scripts by and large ignored it.
