I identified a regex anomoly in the s6 suite of service management tools that
the author rectified for FreeBSD.

The workaround is to replace regular expression searches that require only 
-
with 
-.* 
for pattern matching purposes on *BSD.  Though clearly the better solution is
to upgrade skalibs from 2.8.0.1 to 2.8.1.0, available here
https://skarnet.org/software/skalibs/skalibs-2.8.1.0.tar.gz

The pkg-list requires 
sed -i '' -e "s/2.8.0.1$/2.8.1.0/" -e "s/2.8.0$/2.8.1/" pkg-plist
to successfully build the required kit.

Package build and use was successful on amd64 FreeBSD11.2Beta1
