Not a big problem. /usr/local/etc/rc.d contains shell scripts which run
additional software you installed.

You can type pkg_info, and go to /usr/ports/distfiles and fetch needed
sh-scripts from needed source distributions. Sometime sh-scripts
are parts of ports, so you can go to /usr/ports/<category>/<portname>
and take sh-script from there.

Of course you can reinstall all packages, but I'm not sure that it it a good
idea.
