------- Additional Comments From jorton@redhat.com  2004-11-22 15:56 -------
Determining the creation time of a process would be a portability nightmare.  I
really can't see what httpd behaviour it is desirable to change here.  It's
generally desirable to do the do the kill(pid, 0) check at startup against the
old pid.  And as Andrew says the general workaround is to put the pidfile
somewhere where your initscripts will delete it at boot.  rc.sysinit deletes
/var/run/* with the Linux initscripts, for instance.
