This is due to the order on how entries are written in the monitrc
file as I mentioned before (I'm fixing it). If you use this order it
should work:

 check gpm with pidfile /var/run/gpm.pid
 start program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/gpm start"
 stop  program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/gpm stop"
 depends on xinetd
 
 check xinetd with pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid
 start program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd start"
 stop  program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd stop"
 depends on sshd
 
 check sshd with pidfile /var/run/sshd.pid
 start program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd start"
 stop  program = "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd stop"

The start order is correct! gpm depends on xinetd so xinetd is started
first and xinetd depends on sshd. The stop order is fixed if the list
is ordered as above.
