F11+updates doing a "service httpd status" reports that the subsystem is

right.
Not sure why the sudo makes a difference, but it seems to me that it
shouldn't require root privleges to simply inquire for the status of
something.
That would be because the pidfile is located in /var/run/httpd vs
/var/run (as in rhel), and is not readable by nonroot:
drwx------. 2 root root 4096 2009-09-02 16:04 /var/run/httpd
Not really a bug since regular users don't need to be querying service
status, and httpd isn't singled out.
There also seems to be a problem with apache ignoring the pidfile
configuraton so scripts that use a configured path for the pidfile will
probably not find that file anyway even if the permissions weren't a problem:
