Ok I know about HANDLE_RC_SCRIPTS, it's a good approach. But how to deal with when I need to restart a service without upgrading? Reaper functionnality is a trouble for many administrators who made meta ports to manage their servers. I really think it could be a option to be enabled/disabled. Can you see this possibility?
