There is a string in /etc/init.d/ipfw: opts="panic showstatus" It probably should be: extra_commands="panic showstatus" Reproducible: Always
The init script is NOT part of sys-apps/openrc. I'm taking a guess that this is about sys-freebsd/freebsd-sbin according to: sys-freebsd/freebsd-sbin/files/ipfw.initd sys-freebsd/freebsd-sbin/files/ipfw.confd Next time, use equery or qfile to match the file to actual package for the bug report.

This is fixed in commit 3b05586 and will be in openrc-0.12. Thanks for the report.
