Have you tried
$ sudo mg /etc/rc.local
yet?

rc.conf is just a shell script that gives variables which /etc/rc
reads and uses to decide what to launch
rc.local is just a shell script that gets run at the end of /etc/rc
Put your calls in rc.local
or make /etc/rc.mydaemons and call it from /etc/rc
or something.
It's a pretty simple system.
