Hi

Why to do this? Explicit checking of config has some specific use cases
but it is IMHO pointless in standard init scripts. If we need return
values (to see if BIRD was properly started or reconfigured), we should
get proper return values from the primary commands (that means that
'birdc configure' should be used for reconfiguration instead of sending
HUP and i should ensure that birdc returns proper error code)
