I have to say, even with the improvements, that looks pretty
disgusting. It really makes me wonder if that thing couldn't be done
better some way. Is it the SysV semaphores that this all ends up
using, or what?
That said, I think the IPC layer is just about the perfect candidate
for things like this, because I'm afraid that nobody is ever going to
fix it.
