Which is the whole point of having the IPC mechanism

That all sounds wonderful!
So, when are you going to deliver this fully functioning
and debugged code for inclusion in FreeBSD-5.2?
My guess is that he will deliver it to DragonFly BSD, and it
will then be up to someone with FreeBSD commit privs to look
at steal^h^h^h^h^h^h adapting it for our purposes...
Note that we are already in the code-freeze for 5.2-release,
so I will estimate the probability that all this happens in
time for this release is zero. Absolute zero. What might
happen for 5.3-release is a different story, of course.
