Using conf.d files for user configuration is standard practice with OpenRC; no need to edit service files.
Also pass env vars the proper way with --env instead of exporting in the service script.
Log output is now saved to a file instead of disappearing into the ether.

Additionally use pre_start to run potentially needed recompiles with lower CPU priority as this can otherwise hog all CPU cores starving other services for a while.
(Note doas cleans the env unless the system administrator changed its config, so export wouldn't help here)

late addition: disable busy waits in default OpenRC and SystemD from-source service files (disclaimer: i only tested the OpenRC one)
