Again, a patch against upstream C code for functionality that can currently be trivially added by wrappers and init scripts. This is not going tin the right direction. >A more realistic option would be launching a program (or script) which >would read a configuration file (containing whatever >/etc/default/exim4 contains nowadays) and launch the exim instance(s). So one would have some thing "like an" init script, which would probably have to stay around and monitor the daemon? That doesn't look like an easier way to do things.
