rsync as a daemon doesn't play nice with rcng

Noticed that the rsync port has an rcng compliant script for starting
rsync in daemon mode. Nice.
Unfortunately, rsync doesn't seem to write its pidfile to /var/run,
and doesn't seem to even _support_ doing so. As a result, the rc
system is unable to determine when it's running, thus stop and
restart work poorly.
Is there a mechanism within the rc system that can work around this
so the rc script can be improved?
