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.
