Quote from  man rc

                                   Typically, the
   /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ mechanism is used instead of rc.local these days but
   if you want to use rc.local, it is still supported.  In this case, it
   should source /etc/rc.conf and contain additional custom startup code for
   your system.  The best way to handle rc.local, however, is to separate it
   out into rc.d/ style scripts and place them under /usr/local/etc/rc.d/.
