I recently set up a couple of systems from a fairly recent source tree,
and I've got two comments about rc.conf:
(1) Why rc.local.conf instead of rc.conf.local? It's localized
additions to rc.conf, not a config file for rc.local.
(2) When are we going to be able to stop having to hack on /etc/rc to
get it to stop torching /tmp on every boot?! Yes, blowing away
/tmp is a reasonable way to want to run a system - but so is *not*
blowing away /tmp, or at least not on every boot.
