[Bug 3490] New: spamd silently fails to unlink unix socket (and pidfile, sometimes)

http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3490

           Summary: spamd silently fails to unlink unix socket (and pidfile,
                    sometimes)
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: spamc/spamd
        AssignedTo: spamassassin-dev@incubator.apache.org
        ReportedBy: tim@bishnet.net


I had a problem with spamd restarting (using the HUP signal). It turned out to
be that it simply couldn't unlink the unix socket because of permission issues,
but this wasn't immediately apparent.

The attached patch makes spamd correctly report errors when it fails to unlink,
which would have saved me some time :-)
