Have you considered doing this at the pmcd/pmproxy.c level instead, so
that a bad rc from __pmSecureServerSetup is sent but tolerated
(instead of triggering DontStart())?  That way, the
__pmSecureServerSetup function doesn't lie about its success, which in
turn would later let us extend pmcd with a $PCP_SECURE_SOCKETS-like
option to *require* ssl?
