 That all looks okay. Although other scripts (on my boxes) do have 
 executable bit set in the share/examples/rc.d/ directory. I don't see this 
 as any problem though since it is not ran.
 
 If you really want the example to be an executable, fix your 
 sysutils/estd/patches/patch-aa and rerun "make makepatchsum". (But I am 
 not sure why.)
 
 I thought your problem was that the rc.d script was not executable. See 
 /etc/rc.d/estd. Is it executable?
 
 Are you using PKG_RCD_SCRIPTS=yes? (If not, the install will tell you to 
 manually install it and shoudl suggest the correct mode.)
