Consider, for instance, an LXC container which shares root filesystem with the host.
The "pidof -c" is just a workaround. In your case pidofproc would fall back into the current (broken) functionality, AFAICS. A *clean* solution would give /bin/pidof the boot and rely upon the PID files in /run only. This is not the problem here. The problem is that things like this don't get fixed because its pretty complex code for an easy task. Changing it might have unforeseeable side effects and nobody dares to touch it. Regards Harri
