codebrowse is writing it's PID file into the source tree

[Steve McInerney]

From an init.d stop:
open("/srv/codebrowse.launchpad.net/production/launchpad-rev-12021/scripts/loggerhead.pid", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

The startup/stop commands are:
ROOTDIR=/srv/codebrowse.launchpad.net
name=loggerhead
rundir=${ROOTDIR}/production/launchpad
export LPCONFIG=codebrowse1

make -C "$rundir" LPCONFIG=${LPCONFIG} start_codebrowse

make -C "$rundir" LPCONFIG=${LPCONFIG} stop_codebrowse

As we have 2 codebrowses running on guava, ideally the PID would be something like:
/var/tmp/${LPCONFIG}.pid or thereabouts, so as to keep the two separately identified.

Actually, can we have the pidfile be written to /srv/codebrowse.launchpad.net/var/ (for production), which I think is where it was before. We also need to make sure there's some way of preventing pidfile locations from changing in production (unless we really want to, and have warning ahead of time) because initscripts depend on them, and if they change, it breaks rollouts in a very painful way.

I think this is a dup; dunno the #.
