I thought of changing the SMF method to something like
   "while ! asadmin ... ; do sleep 1; done"
(perhaps with my arbitrarily-picked timeout, like running 10 loops
max), but this would be prone to any number of other unforeseen
errors causing the failure exit code - and that event should be
detected/reported rather than ignored in this manner.

Well, there are no particular errors in the log, just zillions of
closing, unregistering, unhooking stuff. No erroneous stacktrace,
no real hiccups like a minute of silence. Simply a lot of work to
stop the portal properly. That part we don't really find unusual.

Thanks for commiserating with me on this ;)
