Perhaps it isn't desirable to have it start up right after installing it, yet you don't want to go through the steps necessary to register it with SMF (I know it's only one step...). That way, it is only a matter of enabling it when it's ready to go. It seems that cswclassutils has this type of behaviour in mind based on what I read here: http://wiki.opencsw.org/cswclassutils-package#toc3 So if use_smf isn't set to 'no' and autoenable_daemons is set to 'no', then it won't start but is ready to be enabled.
