 I've successfully merged the patch in (b) into netbsd-5, and it does
 indeed seem to work.  (The rump_foo in -5 still aren't very usable,
 since they don't daemonize, and when I tried to make them daemonize
 I failed to find the place to do it such that it would actually work
 instead of making the parent spin on locking stuff in exit(), but that's
 mostly outside the scope of this ticket.)  I think I'll request a pullup
 for it anyway, just in case someone tries to use the -5 rump servers as
 provided.
 
 I do agree that (a) is a good thing to have and a better way to deal with
 this kind of thing in general.
