Default config uses "/etcpimd.conf" instead of "/etc/pimd.conf"

This bit in Makefile is probably the culprit.

sysconfdir   ?= /etc
[...]
CPPFLAGS     += -D_PATH_SYSCONF=\"$(sysconfdir)\"

Compare to pathnames.h:

#ifndef _PATH_SYSCONF
#define _PATH_SYSCONF           "/etc/"
#endif

#define _PATH_PIMD_CONF         _PATH_SYSCONF "pimd.conf"

Note that explicitly setting --sysconfdir=/etc works fine:

        sysconfdir)
            echo "sysconfdir    = $arg/" >> $TMP
            ;;

On a related note, "sysconfidir" in the configure help text is a typo.
