I actually am concerned about what happens to std_in. The parent
process serializes a bit of state and passes it to the child via the
child's std_in. There's probably a better way to do such a thing, but
it works for now.

 I will wait to test this when (and if) I have to put a node on a Windows box.

If only I knew for sure that all nodes would remain in the POSIX world.

I appreciate the help.
