Hi Greg,

Thanks for kicking the tires!

That comes from the configure script ...

dnl rc/startup files
if test $target_os != darwin
then
    for d in /etc/rc.d/init.d /etc/init.d /sbin/init.d ; do
        if test -d $d
        then
            pcp_rc_dir=$d
            break;
        fi
    done

I wonder if /etc/rc.d/init.d should ever be used?  Perhaps the order
of directories should be changed?  (else, we could just remove that
first directory - perhaps it was for IRIX?  Max do you remember?)

FWIW (not much), this isn't a recent change, it was always that way.

cheers.
