Are you concerned about tmpreaper or cron jobs that periodically cleanup 
/tmp? There may indeed be an issue for applications that run for weeks 
or months. If someone is using jmap, jcmd or other tools using the 
attach API then it will trigger the attach listener to start. When they 
come back in a few weeks then the .java_pid<pid> file may have been 
removed so they cannot attach. Is this what what you are pointing out?
