This is probably staring me in the face:
if [ ! -d foo]
then mkdir foo
fi
gives me:
[: missing ]
Looking at rc.subr I see:
if [ ! -d $linkdir ]; then
warn $_me: the directory $linkdir does not exist.
return 1
fi

You want a space before the ] and a semicolon after it.

It is probably not telling you ':' missing but ';' missing.
It goes after the ']', plus I think the space

Missing space ^ here.
ie:
if [ ! -d foo ]
then
mkdir foo
fi
or perhaps more succinctly:
[ -d foo ] || mkdir foo
or best of all, maybe just:
mkdir -p foo
