We can write a new ctl script that covers that functionality and can live

We really don't need more duplication on this project, and I don't see
the need for an entirely new startup/shutdown mechanism. There might
be value in adding a --stop to qpid-server, and there's definately
something to be said for having an LSB-compliant init script. I don't
see what value implementing Yet Another Startup Script has, and it's
not like fooctl is standardised, massively more useful than what we
have or even particularly common.

If there are specific issues with the current set of scripts we should
address them, e.g. run.sh may just be dead code, I don't know if anyone
still uses it, and certainly if someone does it should probably be
better named.
In general I would be -1 to anything involving throwing away qpid-run.
There are a ton of debug options, os dependent hacks, etc, all of which
generally take time to get right because nobody thinks of them up front
when they sit down and write a launcher script from scratch.
If there is really need for a single unified script we should clearly
articulate the issue and figure out how to address it without throwing
away qpid-run.
