560c4fc142 - Add a note that passing NULL to pidfile_write(), pidfile_remove() and
pidfile_close() functions is safe. This possibility is used in example code.
- Cast pid_t to int.

8b28aef238 Pidfiles should be created with permission preventing users from opening
them for reading. When user can open file for reading, he can also
flock(2) it, which can lead to confusions.
