a handy way to do this is using /etc/start_if.$interface:

	# cat /etc/start_if.wg0
	#! /bin/sh
	/usr/bin/wg setconf wg0 /etc/wg/wg0.conf

i've been using this a while now and have not run into any problems with 
it.  presumably it would not be too difficult to add an rc.conf knob for 
this, if anyone cared to do it.
