REQUIRE is somewhat poorly named, as it implies that the feature must
be enabled to satisfy the requirement, which is not true. It would
more properly be called AFTER since it only applies to how rcorder
arranges the scripts to be run (and therefore tested to see if they
are enabled or not).
Without knowing the details of what you're working on, you can
probably just REQUIRE named.
