The patch is attached and works pretty well for me.
In addition to tinybsd.localfiles, I've made a few improvements:
- I've moved the configuration filenames in a variable ;
- When computing "sub-dependencies", use a temporary alternate file
  and then merge it back to the main dependency file ;
- "chflags 0" files that are to be turned into symlinks before unlinking
  them ;
- Handle /boot.config correctly in the configuration directory.

Thank you.
