Editing environnement variables and indicating which specific interfaces
I want the daemon to listen on for requests are the only real-world
cases that come to my mind straight away.
For most of the scripts I've seen this used, that is changed in
/etc/sysconfig/daemonname. Like dhcpd etc, which isn't in the initscript
itself. Just pointing it out, not taking sides...
