Is that true for the Forth layer? I didn't think there was a relative path.
Just tested on 9.2-R loader(8):

Contents of /boot/loader.rc.local:
echo "Hello, World!"

At loader(8) prompt:
OK include /boot/loader.rc.local
Hello, World!
OK include loader.rc.local
can't open 'loader.rc.local': no such file or directory
