The patch looks _almost_ good to me.  For the sake of style, I'd
rather move the clear_tmp_X block to inside the start method.  That
would require renaming rcvar to, say, rcvar1 and checking it from
the script.  E.g.:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
...
rcvar1=`set_rcvar clear_tmp`
...
cleartmp_start()
{
	if checkyesno ${rcvar1}; then
		echo "Clearing /tmp."
		...
	elif checkyesno clear_tmp_X; then
		echo "Clearing /tmp (X related)."
		rm -rf /tmp/.X[0-9]-lock ${x11_socket_dirs}
	fi
	if checkyesno clear_tmp_X; then
		# Recreate X related directories.
		mkdir -m 1777 ${x11_socket_dirs}
	fi
}

run_rc_command "$1"
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

My point is that well-behaved rc.d scripts don't do their job outside
of their methods.
