Ah, this means that other places are affected too (e.g. qemu-pr-helper, which shouldn't fork(), but libvirt can just use kill(-pid) to be sure). But since I've posted a patch that will remove these lines and replace them with a simple virPidFileForceCleanupPath(), we can do that in one place for the benefit of others. Michal
