If you are that concerned about the maintenance burden, I am happy to
say OpenRC packagers are willing to help in this situation for any
OpenRC related issues. Just bug us.

On kFreeBSD, IMHO, diversity is quite a good thing, even from a packager
maintainer PoV. Making your package portable in the correct way (say,
not temperary conditional block hacks) is generally good for its
rubostness. Implicit assumptions to a single environment ease our tasks
in the short run, but accumulate and exploit the health of the package
in the long run.

Cheers,
Benda
