/dev is a good choice - particularly
if you happen to be lucky enough to have a mount --move
to move that into the new system, but that is not everyone. The
solution is simple: use ptrace (a-la gdb) to hook the
data out of, (and kill) an already running process. That combined
with some duplicate daemon avoidance re-using the same code
substantially cleans things up: a much simpler shell-script wrapper,
with the hope of killing the wrapper altogether: nice.
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE, Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International), or anyone else. It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy. Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences or fun.
