Summary:                    dumps core when run under SMF control on SPARC
Description: 
running under SMF control gives, in
/var/svc/log/network-cswfetchmail:default.log, the following error:

[ Aug 20 12:00:36 Executing start method
("/var/opt/csw/svc/method/svc-cswfetchmail start") ]
Starting the fetchmail daemon using /opt/csw/etc/fetchmailrc
fetchmail: WARNING: Running as root is discouraged.
fetchmail: removing stale lockfile
[ Aug 20 12:00:36 Method "start" exited with status 0 ]
[ Aug 20 12:00:39 Stopping because process dumped core. ]
[ Aug 20 12:00:39 Executing stop method
("/var/opt/csw/svc/method/svc-cswfetchmail stop") ]
[ Aug 20 12:00:39 Method "stop" exited with status 0 ]

In the /var/log/syslog file we have:
Aug 20 12:01:51 abhavana fetchmail[26807]: [ID 260362 mail.info] starting
fetchmail 6.3.11 daemon 

each second...

The /opt/csw/etc/fetchmailrc file contains:

set syslog
set daemon 60
poll...

Note that it worked before the upgrade to 6.3.11,REV=2009.08.08

When starting manually:

/opt/csw/bin/fetchmail -f /opt/csw/etc/fetchamailrc

it doesn't dump core.

How about we close this bug and if you get a concrete failure example you
can always open another case.
