Subject: a wait feature... and pull request

From: Michael Hamlin <pyrrhlin [...] gmail.com>
howdy neil, i needed a wait feature from Proc::Pidfile, and implemented it. Multiple containers are sharing a volume mapped to parent filesystem (this is a dev scenario). The main app in each container checks for and tries to generate some required data in that sahred volume, resulting in a stampede. All the processes require the data, so I don't want them to just skip it (and then die, when they dont find the data), but rather wait for it. please see: https://github.com/neilb/Proc-Pidfile/pull/3 thank you, michael
