I tested it on my box and had to make a couple of tweaks before it
worked. Quotes were missing and buser and procname were not defined yet.
Also, beacon handles the pidfile on its own from the config file, not
the command line. Attached is a context diff to your version.

I don't see any examples in the ports in the ports tree:
fun 30 % pwd
/usr/ports
fun 31 % find . -maxdepth 3 -name Makefile | xargs egrep -w daemon |
grep command
./devel/fossology/Makefile:# - Add status command to rc.d script
(run through "daemon -p ...")
./net-p2p/btpd/Makefile:COMMENT= Bittorrent client consisting
of a daemon and client commands

That seems to be doing it the same way the current committed version
of files/beacon.in does; viewvc_start() invokes daemon directly.
