Thanks for clearing that up.

I was wondering if it would be possible to start dossrv in a new
namespace, built from scratch, so I've been playing a bit with rfork
(the rc builtin).
However, when I do a 'rfork N', my namespace is empty after that (of
course), but I'm not sure how to get it populated again? Since /bin is
gone, I'm can't do much beside using rc's builtins, of which 'exit'
seems to be the most useful at that point...

Greetings, Sander.
