I had a patch for tmda-ofmipd in tmda-1.0.3 that wrote a pid file
when run as root in the background.
Here is the forward port of that patch for tmda-1.1.12
I don't claim to be a python programer so there may be better ways
to do it.
Now if I could only figure out how to get the signal handler to
remove the .pid file when it exits.
