/etc/rc runs /etc/rc.sysctl twice: one "early", after mounting filesystems, reseeding the random number generator and adding a swap file, and before running rc.serial, rc.pccard, rc.network.
one "late", after network_pass4 but before raising the securelevel. This was added in response to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=19629 The update to the /etc/rc.d infrastructure keeps the ability to run twice, but does not actually run it twice. I started creating an /etc/rc.d/sysctl-last that would run "/etc/rc.d/sysctl lastload", but realized that I didn't know how to say where the first/second call should go. To strictly follow /etc/rc.d, I could change the existing /etc/rc.d/sysctl to say "BEFORE: serial" and add "BEFORE: securelevel" to sysctl-last, but I'm not sure this is appropriate given the meta-checkpoints that we have. (It also raises the question of if /etc/rc.d/securelevel actually runs at the right time. /etc/rc puts it almost at the absolute end, while rcorder sticks it somewhere in the middle -- number 67 of 102 on my system.)
