--- Comment #1 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
From NetBSD:

     rc_fast_and_loose
                     If set to a non-empty string, each script in /etc/rc.d
                     will be executed in the current shell rather than a sub
                     shell.  This may be faster on slow machines that have an
                     expensive fork(2) operation.

                     Note:   Use this at your own risk!  A rogue command or
                             script may inadvertently prevent boot to
                             multiuser.

I don't think there's any value in keeping it these days.
