Curious. If you've only seen this on this machine, you could try
a svcadm refresh in case there is some difference between the current
property values and the running snapshot. Otherwise, you should capture
the output of
echo ::startd_log | mdb -p `pgrep startd`
just after this happens. It's human-readable, so you can take a look,
or you can send it to us, or you can put it in a bug report.
