pidfile messed up

[shakeyourbunny]

The pidfile with the screen is being messed up with zombie screens, if the bukkit server is not instantanous "ready" and fails subsequently to start the whole thing up.

Solution:

is_running() { 
...
if [ -r "$pidfile" ]
then
     screen -wipe >/dev/null     # add this line

This will clean up the messed pidfile.
