 What about launchd? Wouldn't it be possible to port that to
 Debian/kFreeBSD? It's designed to run in a BSD userland, after all.

That doesn't seem like it would help at all with the concern about keeping
our userspace aligned across kernels.

I honestly don't think this is going to be a realistic goal considering
the fact neither upstart or systemd are still not working on BSD or even
Hurd and I don't see any serious efforts by anyone to see this happen
anytime soon.
