I was looking into creating such a patch myself, and I came to the
conclusion that to be useful the count would have to be stored in a
shared-memory segment. I don't know enough about shmem portability
issues to do this, so I kind of forgot about it...
Is there currently any shmem code in Exim at all?
If I should deside to look into it again, I'd probably have a look at
the shmem abstractions in APR (Apache Portable Runtime) for guidance.
