sudo suddenly stopped working to run "/sbin/rc.d" [solved]

Topic says it all:

$ sudo rc.d start distccd
Password: 
Sorry, user facade is not allowed to execute '/usr/sbin/rc.d start distccd' as root on mars.

# grep rc.d /etc/sudoers
facade ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown,/sbin/modprobe,/usr/bin/pacman,/sbin/rmmod,/sbin/telinit,/sbin/rc.d,/usr/bin/cpufreq-set,/usr/bin/vboxbuild

EDIT: this is true on several different boxes.

Good eye...

$ pacman -Qo /usr/sbin/rc.d 
/usr/sbin/rc.d is owned by initscripts 2011.10.2-1

Must be that the previous version of initscripts placed it in /sbin/rc.d

@falconindy - Nice! So all you did was browse to http://projects.archlinux.org/ and then into the initscript.git and finally search for "/usr/sbin" ? Is there a way to search all projects for a query simultaneously?

Why would you need it?

No, i dug through history via git on the CLI to get the commit hash.

@karol - just looking for ways to harvest more info.
@falconindy - thanks for the info.
