As an aside, you may want to use /etc/rc.conf.local instead.

on a related note:

One problem is that it appears that /usr/local/etc/rc.d is NOT a 
full-citizen in the rcNG system.  You must have a .sh on the end, which 
is not true of things in /etc/rc.d  . I do not know if this means that 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d scripts run inside the main process as a .sh script 
does from /etc/rc.d or if it runs as a sub-process.  In /etc/rc.d, ones 
without .sh run as sub-processes of the main startup script, while ones 
ending with .sh run in the main process...
