--- Comment #1 from Heiko Schlittermann <[email protected]> ---
>From the Exim man page: 

                When  a  listening  daemon  is started without the use of -oX
                 (that is, without overriding the  normal  configuration),  it
                 writes     its     process    id    to    a    file    called
                 /var/run/exim4/exim.pid. This location can be  overridden  by
                 setting  PID_FILE_PATH in Local/Makefile. The file is written
                 while Exim is still running as root.

                 When -oX is used on the command line  to  start  a  listening
                 daemon,  the process id is not written to the normal pid file
                 path. However, -oP can be used to specify a path on the  com‐
                 mand line if a pid file is required.

So I'd suppose it's up to the init script, to pass the -oP option too if -oX is
used.
