The "@remove-line-for-nolocal@" bits should not be there. initdb would normally either delete those lines entirely, or strip off "@remove-line-for-nolocal@", depending on the switches it was given. Likewise the various other @something@ bits should have been changed to something else. It certainly wasn't working before if it was like this, either.
Tom, I've no idea how the file was changed, but something certainly happened to it. Restoring pg_hba.conf from 2016-09-17 (when pg-9.5.1 was installed) certainly fixed the issue.
