The rc.d scripts syntax has changed in the mean time -- you/it should make
use of the /etc/rc.subr stub.
For packages you will need to upgrade them [from updated ports] to the
latest version.

Check whether you have an /etc/rc.d/localpkg script. Try to run it with
trace (e.g. "sh -x /etc/rc.d/localpkg start").
