Almost. Use the log directory instead, if you can (replace qmaill with
whatever user you want to run your log process on):
cd /service/foobar
printf '#!/bin/sh\nexec env - PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/bin" my_prog 2>&1' > run
chmod +x run
mkdir log
printf '#!/bin/sh\nexec setuidgid qmaill splogger my_prog_id 3' > log/run
chmod +x log/run
chmod +t .
If the main process dies for some reason, the logging program is kept
running ``so that no data is lost'' (according to the svscan page).
