I do agree with peter on this one...and somewhere on / makes good sense, 
however I'm very much against doing in /etc.  /etc/local/ on the otherhand
would be fine.

Why?  /etc has always been one of the hardest directories to manage.  What do 
you keep, what do you blow away when it's time to upgrade.  /etc/local makes
things a lot more clear "stuff I've added"
