* Use pidfile(3) in cron(8).pjd2005-08-244-63/+29
| | | | | | | Note, that when cron(8) cannot create pidfile, it'll exit. I didn't changed this behaviour, but its better to ignore errors other than EEXIST, so daemon can be started on systems where /var/ file system doesn't support locking (like NFS without rpc.lockd(8)).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | e->cmd. free_entry() now does the right thing with partially-initialized structures. load_entry(): Don't call env_free() on e->envp throughout the routine before jumping to eof; the free_entry() call at that label will take care of it. The previous behavior resulted in e->envp being free'd twice (well, the second time would usually result in a crash, but that's besides the point); once in load_entry(), and once in free_entry() after the former called the latter. Also note that the check added to free_entry() (above) doesn't help, since e->envp wasn't reset to NULL after env_free(). Submitted by: Mark Peek <mark@whistle.com>
