Mystery resolved:
I had to add the PidFile line manually, because there is
no debconf prompt for it. If after that dpkg-reconfigure
isn't run, ucf still has the hash of the old config file
without PidFile. The upgrade removes the PidFile, so that
the config file and thus it's hash is identical to what
was previously there. (Just as it is intended!)
And then ucf doesn't try to overwrite the config file,
even though it actually did change.
So in normal circumstances, this should work as expected.

Best regards,
Andreas
