The $RC_UNAME "Linux" had been misspelled as "linux".
As a consequence, entries in e.g. /etc/modules-load.d failed to
load any module succesfully under Linux(!)
In the hwclock, procfs and sysfs service scripts, we automatically
attempt to load the kernel modules we need before we take any action. We
shouldn't do this, because there are systems which do not use kernel
modules and do not have the kmod package installed.
With this change, we continue to load the modules ourselves, but we warn
the admin that they need to be added to /etc/conf.d/modules or built
into the kernel.
In the future, this automatic loading will be dropped.

We had separate sysctl scripts for each operating system. However, there
is no need to do this since we can detect the operating system at
runtime with $RC_UNAME.
When we use the --utc or --localtime switch, also use --noadjfile if it
is available. This means hwclock will not use a drift file.

In previous releases, we either treated no mount points as critical or
all of them.
Now both localmount and netmount support a critical_mounts setting. If
mount points listed in this setting fail to mount, localmount and
netmount will fail.
Before this commit, on Linux, we were always trying to mount file
systems marked with _netdev, even when the previous mount command
failed. Now, we do not run the second mount if the first fails.

Netifrc is no longer part of OpenRC, so we shouldn't save its dep tree
as part of savecache.
This should have been removed when netifrc was split out. also, it
might be related to the following bug.

In the past, OpenRC was a hybrid of a centralized and file-scope
license/copyright structure.
I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to
convert to a Centralized structure where possible, for easier future
maintenance.

add in parsing of fstab to determine if nfsclient should be automatically
started so that netmount can mount nfs without adding nfsclient
to the default runlevel
This fixes#71.
This advises users to remove mtab from their runlevels if /etc/mtab is a
symlink, and it creates the symlink if /etc/mtab does not exist on a
system.
