See /etc/init.d/runsvdir

Unsure what direction the fix for this should be in

I was able to reproduce this.

The following fails to start:

```
emerge runit
rc-service start runsvdir
```

To inspect the line:

```
grep runsvdir /etc/init.d/runsvdir
```

On Void Linux `/bin/runsvdir` is a symlink to `/usr/bin/runsvdir`, this fixed it on my Gentoo:

```
ln -s (/bin/runsv*) /usr/bin
```

I also had to change the `USER` line to my username, the shell expansion didn't work.
