I use FreeBSD 4.9 and 4.10 and have the same problem =)

So, just make it
. /usr/local/etc/rc.subr
(be sure that this file exists: install rc_subr)
instead of
.
I guess, it's the maintainer who can fix the problem, since Makefile
in the port has the following
SED_SCRIPT+= -e 's|%%RC_SUBR%%|${RC_SUBR}|g' \
-e 's|%%PREFIX%%|${PREFIX}|g' \
-e 's|%%RC_DIR%%|${RC_DIR}|g' \
-e 's|%%RC_SUFX%%|${RC_SUFX}|g'
AFAIK in FreeBSD 5 variables ${RC_SUBR}, etc are defined in
/etc/rc.conf (or somewhere in defaults) and, so to say, are 'a part of
the system', while in FreeBSD 4.x they aren't.
(as you can see, you can either define them while making the port, or
just change the startup-scripts as I've mentioned)
So your (and my :) ) system just replaces %%RC_SUBR%% with null
values.
