your patch broke it. eval rs=\$1 means rs will be set to the literal $1, while 
it should expand to the ruleset number, using the ruleset name, because 
devfs_rulesets_from_file sets:
eval $rulename=\$rulenum

Something else is wrong. Set rc_debug="YES" in /etc/rc.conf then
/etc/rc.d/jail start example

to trace how the rulesets are evaluated.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
