    Daniel, Alexander,

    thanks a lot for your suggestions.
    So far I've made good progress. For the time being I'll buffer in
    kernel space - I'll look into the pipe stuff later. I just implemented
    tsleep and wakeup for the read blocking. After major problems when
    starting, this is going to be fun :-)

    Thanks again,
    Hannes.
