This port allows one to monitor other standalone services and
automatically restart them if they are accidentally and unwittingly
terminated, or crash either because of instability or a DoS attack.
It simplifies a task capable of being performed by cron(8) by not
requiring custom scripts to be written for each service being
monitored. The configuration file is simple and easily setup.
Note: version 0.4.1 has a different configuration file format and
any previous configuration file should be updated accordingly.

Fix build with -fno-common
While here simplify the port's Makefile and fix the wrong usage of bzero
and other library functions that take a buffer size: The size parameter
passed was always the pointer, not the buffer pointed to, i.e.
"bzero(buf, sizeof(buf)" instead of "bzero(buf, sizeof(*buf)" ...
In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
