It was something I did need for DEC OSF/1 ATOM/Third-Degree
memory access debugger, and my intention is to change things
dramatically so that there will be no forked sub-process
doing queue-report output anymore.
I am considering of implementing it with Pthreads, but it
means radical departure from "minimal technology" approach.
