OK, 

I filled a report

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219724


If you issue onestart the bug is not triggered.

Also, the bug with onerestart is not triggered all the time. For example, if
you do 

rm /var/run/fcgiwrap/fcgiwrap.pid

and then issue as root from the shell:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/fcgiwrap onerestart

then you see usually: 


cat: /var/run/fcgiwrap/fcgiwrap.pid: No such file or directory
Stopping fcgiwrap.
kill: illegal process id: -
Starting fcgiwrap.




But, there is a race condition, because if you do a number of times:

rm /var/run/fcgiwrap/fcgiwrap.pid

and then debug the rc script with:

rm /var/run/fcgiwrap/fcgiwrap.pid ; bash -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fcgiwrap
onerestart

you will eventually hit the single user mode, because the PID 1 is somewhere
in the list:

kill -TERM -- - 1 17009 17607 17654 1 1 1 1 1 86584 4245 5166 5929 80402
86559

if it is the first one like the previous example, then it will hit user mode
immediately, otherwise the script may exit first before hitting the PID 1,
like

kill -TERM -- - 17009 17607 17654 1 1 1 1 1 86584 4245 5166 5929 80402 86559
