When it says rc.conf(5) it means the file and not the man page. And "the
file" is /etc/defaults/rc.conf and not /etc/rc.conf. So it should just
say "Please refer to the ``jail_*'' variables in /etc/defaults/rc.conf."

Am I missing something, or if you follow the jail(8) man page (this is 9.1

a 'jail -c' hack in /etc/rc.local?

The man page only has this to say:

It is possible to have jails started at boot time. Please refer to the
``jail_*'' variables in rc.conf(5) for more information.

Yet the rc.conf(5) man page makes no mention of /etc/jail.conf. In fact it
seems the rc.d/jail script hasn't been touched since the new jail MFC and
is incompatible with the new conf file mechanism...

The last entry regarding jails in UPDATING is 20090527.
