Package: mongrel

With the version of mongrel_rails distributed with mongrel, stale pid
files are left around in the event of a crash.

When the machine reboots and my init.d script tries to start my
mongrels, they fail due to these stale pids.

The patch at http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/931 adds a
--clean option that removes the stale files if their found, increasing
the robustness of my setup in the event of a crash.

Upstream looks unlikely to merge the patch in, since something similar
is apparantly included in mongrel_cluster. However I'm happy using
mongel on its own without mongrel_cluster, so would love this to be
included.
