start-stop-daemon --exec on debian-live

Hi

I noticed that on several services start-stop-daemon will fail to
stop / restart because it looks for a specific binary.

For instance, I'm playing with monit. The init.d script uses
start-stop-daemon --exec for both the start and the stop targets.

In the stop target this badly fails, as the executable of the process 
is called /filesystem.squashfs/usr/sbin/monit rather than
/usr/sbin/monit that the init.d script expects.

Short of patching individual scripts to rely on the PID file alone, 
do you have any smarter suggestion?
