It only worked on FreeBSD 10 prior to 10.2, the reaper functionnality in freebsd

HANDLE_RC_SCRIPTS=true in your pkg.conf and pkg will automatically restart
anything rc script provide once the package containing it is upgrading.

This is off by default because in many cases it is dangerous (database upgrades,
dovecot like things upgrade etc). But if you know what you are doing it does the
job.
