foldingathome provides for status information built in, kept in the file
'unitinfo.txt'. That information could be used to give a status message for the
foldingathome service.

Adds a status() function to the init-script to perform requested feature

The patch is against the init-script from foldingathome-4.0.0

I will add this to 5.0.2-r2 later today.

I lied, this will not be done, because status in gentoo is just started or
stopped.

A patch that is OK with the initscript policies

I've changed this to give the status message via a new option. Now run
/etc/init.d/foldingathome unitinfo.

Hmm, sounds pretty good, I'll double check on this, make it handle multiple
clients (as we have supported in 5.0.2) and add it.

Fixed in CVS.  Thanks, I enhanced the patch a bit, but I think you'll like it. 
foldingathome-5.0.2-r2 added, I will try to push it to stable soon.
