Are you sure you are not using an old version of mount.davfs? /usr/share/doc/davfs2-0.2.4/NEWS.gz has a line: - pid files have moved to /var/run/mount.davfs # strings /usr/sbin/mount.davfs|grep var /var/run/mount.davfs
Oops, and please do chmod 1774 /var/run/mount.davfs chown root:users /var/run/mount.davfs (see /usr/share/doc/davfs2-0.2.4/README.gz). The ebuild patch http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=65882 attached to bug 102440 does that automatically.
Oh, seems you're right. I used an old version of net-fs/davfs2-0.2.4. What I never understand - why don't "they" increment the release number as soon as something's changed? Obviously, an early davfs2-0.2.4 is not equal to a current davfs2-0.2.4. That's bad. If there's a change, a release should be made, ie. davfs2-0.2.4-r1. This way, updates would work :(
