New description:

 "ods-control stop" always hangs with "Stopping enforcer".

 While looking at ods-control, it appears that the kill -TERM `cat
 ...enforcerd.pid` stopps the process, but enforcerd fails to remove
 enforcerd.pid. As result ods-control hangs in a while loop.

 This is on a OpenSuse 11.3. Privileges of signer and enforcer are non-root
 (but the user has all permissions on pid and containing directory).

Comment:

 I have tried to reproduce this on a 64-bit openSuse 11.3 VM with no
 success...

 There is now some extra code in the enforcer to log a message if the
 unlink fails which may help determine why this happens. Could you try
 again with svn r4251 or higher?
