Could a portmgr have a look PR 54116?
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=54116
This port makes it possible to run RC_NG style port start up scripts on
non-RC_NG systems (FreeBSD < 5.0).
As the maintainer of the security/cyrus-sasl port, I have included a patch
which converts the cyrus-sasl port to use RC_NG style start up script (as an
example). Please commit this patch after the rc_subr port has been added to
the ports tree.
I have also submitted PR 54352, which converts several related ports start
up scripts to RC_NG style.

Also, the following PR's can be closed.
PR 44800 RC_NG for local rc scripts

PR 43670 net/openldap
PR 43671 net/openldap2
PR 43672 security/cyrus-sasl
PR 43673 security/cyrus-sasl2
They dealt with this problem by combining RC_OLD and RC_NG into one start up
script. The way I dealt with this problem in PR 54116 is much cleaner.
