Does your port specify its pid file location in a configuration file?

[Doug Barton]

If you maintain a port that specifies its pid file location in its 
configuration file you may be interested in the get_pidfile_from_conf() 
method that I added to rc.subr recently. The change has been MFC'ed so 
it's available in RELENG_[78] as well.

To see an example of how to implement it in a ports rc.d script (by 
testing first to see if the function exists) you can take a look at 
x11/slim. If you're interested in this and would like help and/or a 
review of your patch feel free to follow up here, or on 
freebsd-rc at FreeBSD.org.
