Well beeing new ( and only testing ) to 5.4-stable i can't say for sure but i
think /etc/localpkg know better :)
in /etc/defaults/rc.conf :
local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d"
so the default should be ok if you don't change it in /etc/rc.conf
from /etc/localpkg ( src updated a few days ago) :
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/rc.d/localpkg,v 1.4.2.1 2004/10/10 09:50:53 mtm Exp $
#
..........
for script in ${dir}/*.sh; do <--- so it should load all the *.sh files
slist="${slist}${script_name_sep}${script}"
done
............
for script in ${slist}; do
if [ -x "${script}" ]; then <-- if the file is executable start it
(set -T
trap 'exit 1' 2
${script} start)
..............
from what i see the procedure hasn't changed much since 4.X
