init script starts multiple master daemons

Bug Description

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.
