I use /usr/local/etc/rc.d for all my local stuff.  Just create individual
scripts for each app you want to spawn, and these scripts will be run a
boot-time.  This seems to be more of a SysV way for doing things, but it
works.  Things like samba, ucd-snmp, and ssh already install scripts to
this directory.  Please use those for examples.
