I don't know, put there is a patch here:

and a ticket got submitted here:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=11098&group_id=1306&atid=5147

but it was not committed because "mongrel_rails now supports a --clean".
my mongrel_rails does not support it, but I may have an old version.

I think it would be right for mongrel to clean up it's stale pid files. Every 
program I know of does that, and I patched my mongrel.
