If it wasn't killed and one was already running, you might then have two
running. I think start-stop-daemon was supposed to take care of that.
I also have a hack in /etc/init.d/rc (look for "Temporary Feature" in that
file) to avoid the stop and then start again behavior - I think that's still
in the distributed version.
