there are other builtins, too:
$ for i in /var/run/*.pid;do read x < $i; echo $i $x; done

If you really need to find httpd's pid, you could sacrifice one of
your two shells to 'exec ps ax'. Although maybe 'exec reboot' is all
you really need.

That's for /bin/kill rather than the shell builtin (though neither
manpage really helps with your present situation).
