Notifier service does not remove notification when terminated by android system

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start remote notifier with the persistent notification enabled
2. Use the phone a lot to eat up memory and get Android to kill off background 
processes.
3. ...
4. PROFIT!

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd expect the service to remove its notification or at least change it to 
indicate that its no longer running.

Please paste the application's log here (it should now be on your
clipboard):
No thank you...

What version of Android are you using?
Cyanogenmod 6.1/ Droid (Android 2.2.1)

Notifications work fine before the service gets killed off by the OS:

I/ActivityManager( 1131): Process org.damazio.notifier (pid 5688) has died.
W/ActivityManager( 1131): Scheduling restart of crashed service org.damazio.noti
fier/.service.NotificationService in 48131ms

...Says it restarted, but i just sent myself a text, watched the notification 
hit the phone, but nothing is sent to the PC. The persistent notification still 
says "Remote Notifier: Listening and sending remote notifications" 

If i touch that notification it immediately sends a remote notification for 
battery level.

Is the service not restarting properly?
