The problem in my tests was that the init script was checking for the
pid file before the perdition daemon had a chance to create it.
Instead of the patch in this ticket, I've rewritten the init script
using the latest /etc/init.d/skeleton
Please consider it for inclusion of the next version of the package.
Thank you.
