Hmm, I see your point. I guess that's an unavoidable side-effect of the
process :(. However, judging from the CVS logs, these have not been files
with a high change rate. I think it's worth it but I can imagine other
people see that differently.

There is not a lot of code can be shared. What can be already is eg.
prepare_for_client_read and client_read_ended, the names of the files
used, EPIPE handling, etc.

Have a nice day,
