Any of those above or take a look at others, e.g.
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/bind/trunk/files/CSWbind.cswnamed.

Don't think one exists.

If you do need a custom manifest it doesn't cancel out your need for a
startup (method) script, unless it's super simple. SMF = manifest
(XML) + method (script).
