If nagios can not start due to a broken config then a restart WILL die. A
restart is nothing short of a stop and start of the program.
Wether or not an attempt to reload a broken config should result in a
program failure is not clear to me. But I would consider as-is and would
not considere it a bug if it would die on a reload of a broken config.
As the admin it is my job to give nagios a sane config. If I fail to
provide nagios one then I understand nagios is getting rather
disappointed.
