rcorder is available from pkgsrc-wip as wip/rcorder

I'm not sure that sucessfully understands you (excuse me for my poor English). 
Could you please talk me bit more exactly, what is preferred way for you -
(1) use the different rc scripts installed in dependency on used OS, or
(2) use the depnedency on "rc.d" framework, or (3) some another way?
Next, that packages you are talking about are the pkgtools/rc.subr
and wip/rcorder?
