If you're using a unix domain socket as the source, spiped does not clean up
the socket at shutdown or termination, so any subsequent run results in:

> spiped: Error binding socket: Address already in use

Initially reported here:
https://github.com/Tarsnap/spiped/issues/423

but cperciva determined that it's out of scope for an upstream fix, and:
> the [FreeBSD] rc.d script should probably do an rm -f first.
