Adam agrees that there's an issue with the hardlink idea, so
perhaps zygotes are the way to go for the moment after all.
BTW, on my work machine, for that patch to work at the moment,
I have to invoke it with a real absolute path a la
ENABLE_ZYGOTE_MANAGER=1 `/bin/pwd`/sconsbuild/Debug/chrome
since my chromium directory is a symlink, and pwd reports
the name of the symlink rather than the target.
I'll see if I can get rid of the need for invoking with an absolute path.
