 Hello
 
 The variables in etc/defaults/rc.conf are not meant to be documented
 there only have a brief description so a user can have some idea what
 the variable does.  The documentation of the variables are in the man
 page rc.conf(5) which says the following about pccard_ifconfig :
 
      pccard_ifconfig
                  (str) List of arguments to be passed to ifconfig(8) at boot
                  time or on insertion of the card (e.g. ``inet 192.168.1.1
                  netmask 255.255.255.0'' for a fixed address or ``DHCP'' fo=
 r a
                  DHCP client).
 
 I think is sufficient documentation and see no reason to change the
 description in defaults/rc.conf since it is descriptive of the variable.
 
 Therefor I think this PR should be closed.
 
 Thanks for the submission, I just don't think the proposed change is
 needed.
