Comment (by dustin):

 The fix here is, I think, for the startup script to set up an IPC channel
 with the new process, and then use that to get status information from the
 master.  That channel could be a PB listener on a random port, listening
 only on 127.0.0.1, plus a random username/password.  When the master first
 starts up, it would connect to this port and authenticate, then send both
 Twisted log information and state changes (starting, configuring, running,
 failed, etc.) to the script.

 This could work on most systems, although it will run afoul of the Windows
 firewall if python.exe is not given an exclusion.  For that, I think we
 could add a '--no-wait' option that simply starts the master and skips the
 rest.
