This is exactly what I was looking at the thread where Roland mentions using
libstore as a reference and coming up with a channel abstraction. Then  Kalle
Olavi Niemitalo lays this out quickly and Roland says he is on the right
track (I can't find these messages archived on lists.debian.org other wise I
would've included the URLs, although I have my own copies). So I think I would
like to do something like that, but I am not as knowledegable abou the HURD
(yet) as you are.
