You might want to talk to Robert Watson and see if the concept overlaps or
conflicts with anything he's doing as part of the TrustedBSD project.

As long as systrace does not conflict with what he's doing and does not
introduce the possibility of new security holes, I'm suspect that a port
of the code would not meet much resistance.

Go for it!
