The initscript and other stop scripts will remove the .pid file at shutdown. However, with systemd, there doesn't appear to be a way to do this. This causes multiple problems:

1. during setup -u, many of the scripts are only executed when the server is stopped, and they only check for the presence of the .pid file to see if the server is running.

This currently only affects F-16 and later

Would be a stupid question... You specifically set "/usr/bin/rm" not "/bin/rm". My F14 and F15 do not have /usr/bin/rm, but just /bin/rm.
$ rpm -qf /bin/rm
coreutils-8.10-2.fc15.x86_64

The location of rm is changed on the system which supports systemd?
23 ExecStopPost=/usr/bin/rm -f @localstatedir@/run/@package_name@/slapd-%i.pid

Good point. I originally had /bin/rm but the systemd guys told me to use /usr/bin instead. Since this doesn't exist on F-16 either, I changed it back to /bin/rm.
