0005046: Patch for svc-collectd SMF method to use collectd mon
Since collectd has a nice watchdog daemon to make sure it keeps running, I adjusted SMF script to make use of it as well. Attached.

It should be able to use the SMF contract facility instead of this. I might see if I can give it a try at some point. The current script is not good because if collectd ever fails, the startup script will refuse to start it again complaining about a staled PID file.

There is no point in waiting for this bug to be fixed. If you want it fixed, you (yes, you the reader) need to fix it yourself. If you're not already a package maintainer at OpenCSW, you can look at the 35 minute long tutorial[1] to get started - then you can offer your patch to package maintainers. You can find OpenCSW people on the users mailing list[2] and on the #opencsw channel on IRC on Freenode[3].
