I don't think SMF does any rechecking with file dependencies.  See 
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=5106165

"The lack of re-check of file: dependencies renders them mostly
    useless."

This is why some services with file dependencies go into maintenance and 
some time later the file becomes available and the service doesn't get 
repaired.
