It seems to be related to journald restarting (which drops the stdout pipe i guess), and since amon doesnt handle SIGPIPE is gets killed.
The default systemd config specifies Restart=on-failure - systemd apparently doesnt consider this a failure.
The best way to handle this would probably be to handle SIGPIPE and exit gracefully with a non-zero exit code
Another option would be specifying Restart=always in the systemd file (realisticly - you want the amon agent running always, right?)
(The systemd restarts seem to be caused by some sort of "hardware" (qemu, so virtual) issue - so it won't be super common, but it's probably good to handle this better)
