(sorry, just realized postfix has been messing up my email, hope this
comes through ok)

Thanks, Pavel.  I will take a look at this when I get a chance.  I'm
a little worried about security implications - this approach should
lend itself (especially with the binfmt handler) to clean handling
of security issues, but given the issues we've had with /proc things
that already exist, I'm worried about the dump files.  If you have
any preemptive comments on that, please do share :)

We did briefly try a binfmt handler at the very end of our foray into
the ptrace checkpoint/restart approach, but your overall set here seems
very nice.

thanks,
