>Description:
After doing an upgrade from 4.3-STABLE (built May 08 2001) to 4.4-STABLE (built Dec 10 2001) I noticed that local packages being started via scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d were not being executed upon reboot.
I'd done a mergemaster after completing the make installworld in which I installed all new files except for rc.conf and rc.firewall.

I eventually traced the problem to /etc/rc
For whatever reason the local package initialization section of that file was failing to function correctly. I edited that file and pasted in the section from a different 4.3-STABLE machine, rebooted and the problem was solved. All local packages (apache, dhcpd, mysql) started properly.
>How-To-Repeat:
Local packages will not be initialized until that section of /etc/rc is replaced so every time the computer reboots the problem will repeat.
>Fix:
In the /etc/rc for 4.4-STABLE as of December 10th:
Replace the current section:
case ${local_startup} in
[Nn][Oo] | '')
        ;;
*)
        echo -n 'Local package initialization:'
        slist=""
        for dir in ${local_startup}; do
                if [ -d "${dir}" ]; then
                        for script in ${dir}/*.sh; do
                                slist="${slist}${script_name_sep}${script}"
                        done
                fi
        done
        script_save_sep="$IFS"
        IFS="${script_name_sep}"
        for script in ${slist}; do
                if [ -x "${script}" ]; then
                        (set -T
                        trap 'exit 1' 2
                        ${script} start)
                fi
        done
        IFS="${script_save_sep}"
        echo '.'
        ;;
esac

With an earlier version of that section, such as the following taken from a 4.3-STABLE system:

case ${local_startup} in
[Nn][Oo] | '')
        ;;
*)
        echo -n 'Local package initialization:'
        for dir in ${local_startup}; do
                if [ -d "${dir}" ]; then
                        for script in ${dir}/*.sh; do
                                if [ -x "${script}" ]; then
                                        (set -T
                                         trap 'exit 1' 2
                                         ${script} start)
                                fi
                        done
                fi
        done
        echo '.'
        ;;
esac

I'm guessing that there is a typo or some other problem in the local package init section of the current /etc/rc which is causing the problem.
