Thanks for your efforts, Vladimír!
Sure. Probably better to keep it local (here) to the FreeBSD ports.

Wouldn't have been my first choice either. But, given the use of daemon(8).
We end up with 2 pids...
/var/run/kresd/kresd.pid &&
/var/run/kresd/control/<procnum>.pid
and worse; different versions of knot-resolver result in a differently
named kresd subdir. But to my credit, it always works as intended. :-)
The _correct_ solution would be to remove systemd, and use proper sysV
initialization. Or _add_ it;
#ifdef (FreeBSD...

But until, or unless... this gets the job done.

Thanks again, Vladimír.
