Actually, just put in the last line.  /etc/defaults/rc.conf already
loads /etc/rc.conf.local, if it exists.  I'm not sure offhand if this
has always been the case (in the short life of /etc/defaults), but it
is the case in both -STABLE and -CURRENT at the moment.  You don't
want to create infinite loops in your startup scripts.

Be well.
