+A reincarnation prototype for the Hurd
+======================================
+
+% ./reincarnation -c hi ./persistent-hello --content="hi there :)
+" &
+% cat hi
+hi there :)
+% pkill persistent-hell ; cat hi
+hi there :)
+
+!!! run as root, libtrivfs allows only root to do this atm :(
+# fsysopts hi "--contents=something else
+"
+
+% cat hi
+something else
+% pkill persistent-hell ; cat hi
+something else
+

+including the ports:
+
+% ( pkill persistent-hell ; cat ) < hi
+[1] 14400 resource lost ( pkill persistent-hell; cat; ) < hi
