I have never understood in which order are execurted the scripts which are in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
most port applications like mysqld, cyrus-imapd, spamd etc. put their startup scripts into /usr/local/etc/rc.d but they are not ordered by a number attached before the script name (like the Unix SysV style)
anyone has some hint about this ? How can I Set the startup order into /usr/local/etc/rc.d

Thus the scripts are executed in alphabetic order.
Which means you are free to rename them as 00-mysqld.sh 20-cyrus.sh ... etc, in order to obtain the necessary ordering. Just remember that if the files were put there from ports, upgrading or removing the port in question, expect it to squawk about missing files.
If you were really fussed about it, you could create a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ordered, and symlink /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysqld.sh to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ordered/00-mysqld etc. etc. as required and set local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ordered" in /etc/rc.conf
