Nothing is wrong.
See "man rc".

well, only reason im asking, as in all my previous test boxes, the start
up scripts seemed to initially appear in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ already with
the .sh on them.  ive done dovecot and sasl2 a ton of times, its just
seems odd that they start this behavior all of a sudden.
There are changes going on to how rc scripts work: basically, making /usr/local/etc/rc.d work just like /etc/rc.d with full rcNG functionality (REQUIRE, PROVIDES etc). Scripts which worked like that would no longer end in .sh as per rc man page description for /etc/rc.d

Check out the recent discussions on freebsd-rc mailing list from the archives.

If you believe that the new scripts are wrong, I would suggest asking on freebsd-rc. Maybe some ports have been updated in advance or wrongly or something, but I would think that freebsd-rc was the right place to start.
