Thank you Colin for pointing that out.

I corrected squidctl and here it is again. Appologies for the 9K
attachement if you feel it's too big.

I have tested it with a stale PID file containing both a nonexisting
PID and a PID of an existing process (but not squid) and it works as it
is supposed to.

 There is a similar problem with the apachectl script supplied with
apache (at least version 1.3.9 distributed with Slackware 7.0) from
which this script was inspired.
 I have send a fix to the Apache Team.

Andrei.
