The idea is to use svscan to start 2 supervise processes with a pipe
between them. See the documentation in svscan.html on djb's website:
If a subdirectory sub is sticky, svscan starts a pair of supervise
processes, one for sub, one for sub/log, with a pipe between them.
svscan needs two free descriptors for each pipe.
There must be some story explaining why the documentation is not
included in the tarball, but I don't know what it is.
