I think people will get used to /etc/defaults fairly
quickly
just a note on naming: Solaris as well as HP-UX have /etc/default, not
/etc/defaults. Seeing that we're introducing a change, we might just
as well move to something others use as well.

What I don't like from the new rc.conf approach is the name

First, sorry for the cross-posting, but this problem affects
both the -STABLE and -CURRENT branches.
The rc.local script is called from rc as $conf_dir/rc.local.
However, the new rc.conf does not set the conf_dir variable
anymore, therefore rc.local is not executed.
