Is there a major reason the -p option to generate a pid file is ignored when running haproxy the foreground (e.g. using -db)? It would be nice if this file was still generated when specified--even in foreground mode. Could this be something that could be changed in a future releases?
The change looks trivial, but I would rather not rely on having to use a custom modified version of haproxy. It would nicer to see this behavior in an official version of haproxy. -Chad
