svscan takes care of starting the two supervise processes and I don't
know how you would do this manually. Also, you don't normally restart
services by restarting its supervise and you don't have to take down
supervise to take down the service; instead, you use svc -t to restart
a service (supervise kills it and restarts it instantly) or svc -dt to
bring down the service. If e.g. you change the options to multilog,
you restart multilog with "svc -t theservice/log" without affecting
the service itself or losing log information.
The 1 minute delay only occurs when svscan has to restart a supervise,
which should _never_ happen.

svscan takes care of maintaining the pipe. You just svc at will.
