>Description:

	The setting of rtsold_flags in /etc/defaults/rc.conf as empty,
	without any interfaces to configure, causes rtsold(8) to fail.
	Cf. rtsol_flags, which is set to `-a' in order to make rtsol(8)
	try all interfaces.  It would be nice if rtsol(8) and rtsold(8)
	worked by default, or at least compatibly, just by setting
	rtsol=YES and rtsold=YES in /etc/rc.conf.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Set rtsold=YES in /etc/rc.conf, but not rtsold_flags.  Run
	/etc/rc.d/rtsold.

>Fix:

	To make rtsol(8) and rtsold(8) work by default, the default
	setting of rtsold_flags should probably be `-a'.

	Alternatively, rtsol_flags could be set to empty, and both
	/etc/rc.d/network and /etc/rc.d/rtsold could have precommands
	that require the flags to be non-empty (to approximate the
	actual requirement).  In this case, the rc.conf(5) man page
	should mention that setting rtsol=YES and rtsold=YES requires
	also setting rtsol_flags and rtsold_flags to specify the
	interfaces to autoconfigure.
