Well, it would seem to me that it would require some kernel hacks, but
is at least feasible.

	Freeze the process.

	Save the relevent information to a file including proc entry,
	user info, file discriptor information, blah, blah, blah.

	Remove the process.

Restoring would have to take into account resources that may no longer
be availble, but it is at least doable, eh?
