Looking at /etc/rc.d/rtadv, I think it was this line that causes the
issue:

        cp "$conf" "$chdir$conf"

where $conf is the missing file to copy into a chroot directory. I can't
try that out on my server atm though.

So strictly speaking the manual is correct in that the file is
optional, but some support stuff around it isn't careful enough.
