Seemant,
I'll follow up with one more thought... The reason for the existence of
/etc/init.d, /etc/conf.d, /etc/env.d, /etc/cron.d, etc. is not to
arbitrarily split up configuration files into smaller sections. It's
for a single reason: To allow the files to be installed by separate
packages.
Since /etc/make.conf is installed by a single package (portage, of
course), the logic used for the other /etc/*.d directories doesn't
apply.
Aron
