$poe_kernel is root for all of POE's data. If you Data::Dumper that,
for values of Data::Dumper that reconstitute source code from opcodes
and stuff, you get everything POE knows about. That covers everything
in POE::Kernel (queues, select bits, and whatever) and reaches into
HEAPs and everything within them.
Restarting files and stuff (like graphical toolkits) are left as a
very hard exercise for the reader. :)
