There is probably a hack that can be used to collect both.  the easiest 
way would be a 'show config running' command that is slightly different
in its text, such as an additional argument.  "show config running | no-more".

Is there such a thing?

Anything else will require changes to how rancid manages the command list,
so that it doesnt drop the duplicate.
