Hmmm...well to be honest i have no idea how rc.local normally gets 
called.  I spent a few minutes looking at redhat's initscripts, but 
found nothing.  One thing you could do though... Add your program 
straight to your inittab.  You can even make it automatically restart in 
the event it crashes.

Add something like:
FOO:R:respawn:PROGRAM

where FOO is just some short identifier (2 or 3 letters), R is a list of 
runlevels the program should run on, and PROGRAM is the full path to the 
program to launch.

If you don't want it to automatically restart on crash, then change 
respawn to once.

ex:

foo:35:respawn:/usr/redstar3/sbin/redstard
