From the deb policy:
There used to be another directory, /etc/rc.boot, which contained scripts
which were run once per machine boot. This has been deprecated in favour of
links from /etc/rcS.d to files in /etc/init.d as described in Introduction,
Section 9.3.1. Packages must not place files in /etc/rc.boot.
I don't see a mention of rc.local in inittab, or the init man page. You could
modify the inittab to call this file also if you'd like, but I think you'd be
better off with a script in /etc/rcS.d
