Here is my implementation which pulls the bb-msgstab from the hobbit server on 
every run:

http://zarb.org/~bgmilne/bb-msgs.pl

On hosts running the hobbit client, you can just run it from clientlaunch.cfg.

Now i just need to get rid of the "The client did not report any logfile data" 
message ...

Comments welcome.
