Subject: Running auditd from inittab

I was testing various failures of auditd, and amongst them I tested kill
-SEGV and kill -KILL. I noticed that neither of these generate any audit
event or log activity. It occurs to me that this could be worked around,
and at the same time you could provide some additional level of
reliability, if auditd could be run from inittab. Unfortunately, the
only option to auditd seems to be -f, and this prevents it from logging
in the normal manner.
Are there any other options which might achieve this? If not, is this a
reasonable feature request?
Thanks,
Matt
