Ok, thanks. I see them now in the eclass (for the list: they're being
grepped out of ./configure --help).

Those directories will have to be included in the tmpfiles entry to
ensure that they are owned by nginx. Otherwise I can run e.g.

  $ mkdir -p /var/tmp/nginx/client

and then systemd-tmpfiles will correct the ownership on /var/tmp/nginx,
but not on the subdirectory. With that out of the way, my comment now
applies recursively to the contents of client, fastcgi, proxy, scgi,
and uwsgi...

Rather than maintain the list twice (once for checkpath, and once for
tmpfiles), you can let OpenRC use the tmpfiles entry too. This should
happen by default once the tmpfiles entry is installed. It does tie the
OpenRC script to systemd-tmpfiles, but most of the reasons for
objecting to that are not very rational and I wouldn't worry about
portability of the init script to non-Linux systems for now.
