Improve processing of service directories and conf.d files

symbolic links should not be followed in an attempt to work out the name
of the service we are running. Also, @sysconfdir@/conf.d should be tried
as a backup directory for configuration files.

I would like to thank Robin Johnson for his input on this change.

-Because of the way we load our configuration files and the need to handle
-more than one service directory, you can only use symlinks in service
-directories to other services in the same directory.
-You cannot symlink to a service in a different directory even if it is
-another service directory.

 is_older_than should return 0 on success.
 Instead we return 1 to be compliant with Gentoo baselayout.
 Users are encouraged to use the is_newer_than function which returns correctly.
