This patch is wrong. The problems with it:
(1) You don't need to unlink the pipe. If you can't unlink it, then
you won't remove the pid file.
(2) If devd dies suddenly (kill -9, segv, etc), then the pid file will
remain around, and devd will fail to start.
(3) i_really_do_not_like_names_this_long_esp_when_they_are_not_needed.
The following works around the bug in pidfile_open, and allows me to
restart devd both in a nice shutdown mode, as well as preventing devd
from running multiple times. I'm not 100% sure the error handling is
right, I'm still tracing through that path. This seems to work.
