What is the historical reason for the xymon client pidfile to be named
clientlaunch.`hostname`.pid ? Can that be overridden somehow? It makes
it hard to do anything with the pidfile if the name is not static. We
often override the hostname reported back to Xymon with --hostname=foo
and parsing that out if --hostname exists is going to be a nightmare
Some people put Xymon on a shared filesystem, and adding the hostname to 
the filename makes that possible.
