    20030829:
            The following rc.d scripts have been removed and should be
            deleted from your installation: atm2.sh atm3.sh devdb
            localdaemons network1 network2 network3. Depending on when
            you last updated world and used mergemaster(8) you may or
            may not have problems during the rc boot sequence. The simplest
            solution is an 'rm -rf /etc/rc.d/*' and then 'mergemaster -i'.
            The atm2.sh atm3.sh and devdb scripts were removed some time
            ago, so depending on when you installed -CURRENT these scripts
            may or may not exist on your system.
