Bug description:
  Hi, this is the relevant version information:

  # lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
  Release:        12.04
  dpkg -l haproxy|tail -1
  ii  haproxy                             1.4.18-0ubuntu1                     
fast and reliable load balancing reverse proxy

  When I issue a stop to haproxy via the init script, on line 49 it tries to 
kill the process and returns 4 in case of failure, which then after iis the 
exit status of the script itself. 
  There are many reasons why stopping a process may fail, one of them is that 
the process wasn't actually running. In that case, I think the exit status of 
stop should be 0, since the process is stopped.
  This caused problems in the following scenario:  haproxy governed by 
pacemaker if the haproxy process stops abruptly for some reason (crash, 
oom-killer), pacemaker will try to stop and start it again, but it will fail to 
stop (exit 4, expected 0).
  To work around this, I added a check on the init script to see if the process 
was running, see patch attached.
