PJD> For the patch itself.
PJD> You don't have to have two separate cases depending on request for
PJD> pidfile. You can specify NULL pfh to the pidfile functions.
PJD> Even in example from the manual page when pfh is NULL there is a case
PJD> where we warn, but continue execution and call pidfile functions.
PJD> This should simplify the code.
PJD> If you do that (actually even if you don't), remember to either use
PJD> warn(3) before pidfile_remove(3) and exit(3) after or preserve errno
PJD> before calling pidfile_remove(3), as pidfile_remove(3) can modify it if
PJD> unlink(2) is unsuccessful or pfh is NULL.
Thanks. The updated version is attached.
