Suppose a package SUNWfoo is delivered both bundled with Solaris and 
unbundled.  This package delivers a SMF service that wants to run
at boot time, always enabled (no network services).

The SMF manifest has:           

   <create_default_instance enabled='false' />

by ON requirements.   The bundled version is appropriately enabled
via the SMF profile generic_open.xml and generic_limited_net.xml,
after it gets past the manifest import stage.

The same package, installed separately somewhere, without the 
necesary profile modifications, will never be enabled.  

Any suggestions on how to handle this situation?  Messing with the
SMF profile files seems clumsy and unscaleable.
