It doesn't work now. I don't know what I did to break it, but now I'm
getting FIFO errors again:
diald[1852]: FIFO: full monitor connection to monitor /tmp/dctrl.1915 requested
diald[1852]: FIFO: could not open pipe /tmp/dctrl.1915: Device not configured
The above message appears 2 seconds after dctrl starts, so I'm pretty sure
the "after" is working as advertised.
