I've installed the latest ldirectord from 2.1.3 and I'll watch it to see 
what happens.  I was hoping to avoid one-offs from the regular distro 
stream, but since I'm not changing heartbeat at the same time it's not a 
big deal for this one file.

I'll keep an eye on it over the next couple weeks to see if the behavior 
reappears.

Thanks!
