Recently (who can track all those new kernels?) I've noticed that the commands in rc.local are not running, from which I conclude that it's not being executed. systemctl says: "rc-local.service (loaded active running)"
Any ideas.

If you can, please show us your /etc/rc.d/rc.local contents and file permissions. But that's weird, because I think usually it would give an error on starting up.

That was my theory too.... But I like to test my theories.... So I created an rc.local file with the following contents...
#! /bin/sh -e
#exit 0
touch /tmp/XXXX
and it worked just fine....

Blush! The # is where it should be. Just a copy error.

Not as many as you like - I think the exec() service looks only at about the first 32 characters or something like that.
I stand corrected. ;)
So, why are you restarting nfs services there?
The synclient won't work as rc.local has no connection to your DISPLAY to make changes.
How else are you seeing that commands there aren't running?

Thanks for the tip on synclient
Restarting nfs services is being done because that was necessary in order to get a connection from the client. Admittedly that was several kernels ago :-)

Yeah, that seems odd. I'd just let systemd start them and then if something is not working, track that down and fix it.
