Mark, and others:

In r30313 I've modified daemondo to use kqueue/kevent to watch for the
death of the targeted process. This should catch the situation where
we're watching for a grandchild process, for which we don't receive
child death notices.

Let me know if this helps.

James,

It works! I tested it on 10.4. When I kill the process it starts again immediately. Thanks! It helps me out a lot, and it will others I'm sure
as well.

Great to hear.

If it weren't hard, perhaps it would be valuable to have the notification of process death reported in the startupitem.logfile when present. Or at
least if you agree with that.  Right now the only indication a process
died is by noting the "starting process" message in startupitem.logfile.
Not a big deal though.

By default, logs are requested at level 1 if you ask for the startupitem.logfile.
So I've added some additional logging at level 1 that should make clear
when the process dies, as well as a couple of other cases (receipt of SIGHUP and SIGTERM).

Let me know if that helps: r30335.

James
