Description
VBoxService (/usr/sbin/VBoxService) writes a wrong pid value in the pid file (/var/run/vboxadd-service.pid) so the Linux system could not kill the service during shutdown or reboot. For example, when I uses "ps -ax" command, the pid of VBoxService is 1702 but the pid value in the file is 1698.

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed in the latest 5.0 Additions test build (>= 102651) which you can find here. Could you confirm that?
