Also, does your machine actually have a User nobody and Group nobody?

Yes, so far, so good.

To be on the safe side, you can change the ownership of the httpd.pid file to nobody.nobody if you have issues in the future, but it does not seem to be an issue and it seems the httpd.pid file is written by apache when you start it as root before it forks (or execs, I can't recall which) to nobody.

We like to have all of our web files as the same ownership and group as the apache worker processes, BTW.
