For me it was always strange that the rc.d scripts are considered
configuration files. As such I would prefer to move them to
/libexec/rc.d or whatever and just have symlinks in /etc/rc.d. That
would cover the various cases of local modifications -- just make sure
that the symlink is replaced with your own file.
