Task hobbitd terminated, status 1

For some strange reason, hobbit just stopped working a few days ago.
Client data was no longer being reported and all alerts went purple. I
decided to try a recompile/reinstall just for the heck of it, now I
can't even get hobbitd to start :)

Here is the error from hobbitlaunch.log:

2005-10-18 08:24:10 hobbitlaunch starting

2005-10-18 08:24:10 Task hobbitd terminated, status 1

That's about it, over and over. I searched through the archives and only
came up with a few results, but there didn't really seem to be anything
that solved the problem. Any suggestions?
