I think it is related to similar problem as with hypen it the name="background-fsck" (in rc.d/bgfsck). It did wrong things in eval part of rc.subr http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-rc/2010-January/001814.html So I think you can install "Plex Media Server" binary renamed to "Plex_Media_Server", or somebody should fix rc.subr.
