I think you can do that with start-stop-daemon. 

Whatever happens, don't change when kill does what. Between some processes providing info with SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 and others just dieing when passed any kill signal, kill is confusing enough - no need to confuse it more. 

I don't believe SIGHUP should kill a process either. I think it should have the effect of 'rebooting' it (reread the configs, confirm connections, etc) but not die.
