 I don't get this PR.  rc(8) says of rc.conf.local:
 
      The rc.conf file contains the global system configuration information
      referenced by the startup scripts, while rc.conf.local contains the local
      system configuration.  See rc.conf(5) for more information.
 
 I suppose we could add a link for rc.conf.local in rc.conf(5), but it
 seems pretty pointless.  I'd be more inclinded to delete refrences to
 rc.conf.local myself.

 Sorry, I probably don't understand links to manual pages. It's just
 strange to me, that there is no manual page for rc.conf.local, although
 rc(8) is describing it -- it is in the SYNOPSIS of rc(8) manual page.
 But if it is ok, this bug can be closed.
 
 I don't think the description of rc.conf.local in rc.conf(5) is better
 than in rc(8):
 
      The file /etc/rc.conf.local is used to override settings in /etc/rc.conf
      for historical reasons.  See the rc_conf_files variable below.

 Hello Brooks,
 
    I have been talking about this a bit in IRC and the discussion was
    finished with that, that the rc.conf(5) and rc.conf.local(5) man
    pages should be linked, since they use the same format.
 
    Since the rc.conf.local is mentioned in rc(8) SYNOPSIS and it's
    still being read so that one can still use it, it shouldn't be
    removed from there.
 
    The diff is attached.

 Cheers,
    Daniel Gerzo
