I'm still a big fan of Daniel J. Bernstein's daemontools. Go grab it from http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html and be sure to read instructions. Not exactly configure-make-install kinda thingy. I don't recall daemontools in FreeBSD ports though, maybe there is.

Oh almost forgot, just to save your not-itchy hair, daemontools require your application to be running on foreground. Find a way to do so but if you haven't found it, there is a tool to do so. Once again, read instructions thoroughly.
