Well, nothing from the `base system' should go under /usr/local or something is very wrong with your installation. I find the FreeBSD semantics very clear in this matter.

Seems ok to me. - giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
