:>     Now we have /etc/defaults/rc.conf, /etc/rc.conf, and /etc/rc.conf.local.
:>     Considerably less simple and quite unobvious.

:Erm...  I thought that the point of /etc/defaults/rc.conf was that one
:wouldn't touch it, and only work with rc.conf?

    Yah... kinda like nobody is supposed to touch /etc/rc, eh?

    /etc/rc             - no touchee
    /etc/rc.conf        - no touchee

    /etc/rc.local       - touchees
    /etc/rc.conf.local  - touchees

    That seems pretty obvious to me.  

    I'm still partial to my /etc/rc.conf.N idea, where /etc/rc.conf.0 
    is a no-touchee and /etc/rc.conf.9 is the 'user can do whatever he wants
    with this file' touchee.  The site configurator would mess with
    /etc/rc.conf.2.  A post-install gui configurator would mess with
    either /etc/rc.conf.2 or /etc/rc.conf.3.
