net-misc/openvpn-2.1_rc7 has a --bind in it's init.d, which conflicts with my 'lport' configuration directive. Options error: --lport and --nobind don't make sense when used together Use --help for more information.
Why do you use lport for client? Anyway... If you have a special configuration you can set DETECT_CLIENT to no at /etc/conf.d/openvpn. So you can do whatever you wish, by dropping some of the automatic features of the init script.
