Should be fixed 2aba8f77a2c0de6690f973e331f130000d35c451
If you've already upgraded and you are missing the user, run:
/usr/sbin/pw groupadd -n _relayd -g 913 /usr/sbin/pw useradd -n _relayd -c "Relay Daemon" -d /var/empty -s /usr/sbin/nologin -u 913 -g 913

Yes adding the user does get the relayd service running. I wanted to open the bug so that the upgrade procsess can be corrected to properly add the user.

Yes, new upgrades that happen on snapshots that include the commit I referenced will work fine. I changed the upgrade code to run those commands when upgrading the server load balancing code.
If you want to try it out, wait for a snapshot from tomorrow (or very late today) and try to upgrade again from 1.2.3 to 2.0.
