    """ Adopted from Sander Marechal's "A simple unix/linux daemon in Python"
        See: http://www.jejik.com/articles/2007/02/a_simple_unix_linux_daemon_in_python/

        To use, inherit by a subclass which overrides run() and does all the
        work.  You start the daemon with

            d = MyDaemon(pidfile, foo='1', bar='2')  # Any **kwargs after pidfile
            d.start()   # to start the daemon

        All signal handling should be defined in a subfunction within run().

        Note: This isn't completely general daemon code as it doesn't close stdout/stderr.
        Rather these are redirected to /var/log/grs/grs-daemon-<pid>.err to capture any
        exceptions for debugging.
