The problem is actually very simple. When FreeBSD boots, it calls every executable script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d with the argument "start". When the system shuts down cleanly, the same scripts are invoked with the argument "stop".
You could put a short script in that directory that simply calls / path/to/your/apache/bin/httpd -k $1 , and you're done. The -k argument tells Apache to interpret the following as start/stop/ restart/graceful command, and $1 sucks in the first parameter on the command line.
The work of writing that script has actually been done for you already: you could put a symlink to the apachectl script in that directory. apachectl Responds to start and stop, so that gets you what you want.
