Drop privileges only after having created the pid file

Not 100% sure what you want and why you want it... Could you explain ?

I think i got a message mentioning that it was denied to create the pid file when using the option to drop rights.

I am unable to reproduce now, so it might have been "late evening fat fingers syndrom"... :)
