The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Omen Wild <address@concealed>]

I have attached a small patch for /etc/init.d/sympa.  This is against
Sympa 6.0.1.  The problem was that "/etc/init.d/sympa status" was
reporting that the bulk process had died and left the pidfile behind. The
real issue was that multiple bulk processes were running, and the pid
file had multiple pids listed in it.  The patch uses tr to | the
different pids together so the egrep can find them.
