In the redhat init script zabbix_agentd_ctl, if the PIDFILE is found, but the process is
not running, the PIDFILE should be removed. Otherwise, when the agent daemon
starts up and attempts to create the pidfile, it will report an error, and exit immediately.
This situation can occur if zabbix agentd is running on a host which crashes (or is
rebooted or experiences a power failure without things being properly stopped).
The PIDFILE is still around, but the process isn't.
