Nice! Thanks for doing this :)

This only works if running on corosync-1.x, which is able to help spawn
pacemaker daemons and mgmtd.

Actually, for corosync-2, the decent way would be an init script or a
systemd service file for mgmtd to start it after pacemaker. Patches are
welcome ;)

Hmm, I guess sbd has failed to be built in that repo. Anyway, here is
the sbd upstream:

Yeah, correct. There have been some changes of APIs in pacemaker. I was
thinking about to figure out some way to conditionally compile the bits
so that it would not break the compatibility with older pacemaker, but
didn't get the chance. But maybe that would not be necessary any more. I
guess most people are with pacemaker-1.1.11 or 1.1.22 already.
