[JDEV] modifying jabberd to run as daemon

I've been able rearrange some of the code in jabberd.c to get the port 
bound before setgid/setuid and fork. This lets me run jabberd on 
privileged ports as a nonroot user. The problem is the pidfile is still 
owned by root and has the wrong pid. Can anyone point me in the right 
direction?
