The FHS seems pretty clear about this. The "primary" use case doesn't
matter; we only care whether any normal users will want to run
beanstalkd. By analogy, ping is primarily for admins to diagnose
network problems, but it goes in bin because normal users run it too.

Having said all that, I won't argue any more if you still want to
package it in sbin, but I think beanstalkd's own makefile should stick
with bin.
