>Description:

	After a crash jabberd refuses to run if a pidfile exists.
	The patch below checks if a process with the pid contained
	in jabber.pid is running and removes the file if not.

>How-To-Repeat:

	# [machine crashes, jabberd dies, `killall jabberd`]
	/usr/local/etc/rc.d/jabberd.sh start
	# jabberd fails to start

>Fix:
