None of the other rc scripts are designed to run standalone.
It's actually a simple matter of doing:
% ( . /etc/defaults/rc.conf; source_rc_confs; . /etc/rc.syscons )
I usually run those in a subshell so as not to clutter my login
shell's environment.

Save for rc.firewall and rc.devfs, yes. But what, then, would be the purpose of ${source_rc_confs_defined} in /etc/defaults/rc.conf? -- || Seth Kingsley || Meow Meow Fluff Fluff || sethk@meowfishies.com || || rndcontrol -s 0 || State Changed From-To: open->feedback Would you mind if I close this PR?

Syscons should the definitions in /etc/{defaults/,}rc.conf so it may be run stand-alone. How-To-Repeat: % sh /etc/rc.syscons
