Summary: init script starts multiple master daemons

Initial Comment:
The startup script "/etc/init.d/mailman"  starts
mailman with
a command of the general form "mailmanctl -s -q start"

"-s"  causes mailmanctl to start agaim, regardless of
whether
or not another copy is already running.  Changing init
levels in RH  can generate many, many running daemons.

Attached is a patch to mailmanctl that  tests if the owner
of the lock file is still alive,  before  actually
starting up.
