Huh? Just call make. Why didn't you just try it before asking?

Dunno.

Only if the timing is bad. Call `report_service_status ();' as often

BTW, this is a mailing list, not a private correspondence. I don't
want to step on your feet but I would really really prefer that
you don't address me personally. The mailing list is read by several
hundred people and all of them could have some valuable comment
on that stuff. I can't and I don't want to answer all questions
and it doesn't raise my attendance to be addresses in 90% of the
mails related to ssh.
