What's the suggested way to use /etc/rc.subr instead on NetBSD?

I implemented the support for using rc.subr from pkgsrc instead of the base system.

You can set SYSCONFBASE in mk.conf to choose a different directory to locate rc.subr. The default is /etc, except when bootstrapping outside of /usr/pkg or /usr basically.

HTH,
