daemon: Avoid the link() syscall.

make_pidfile() depends on the link() system call to atomically
create pidfiles when multiple daemons are started concurrently.
However, this system call isn't available on ESX so an alternative
strategy is necessary.  Fortunately, the approach this patch takes
is cleaner than the original code.
