I have played with unexec some myself, and I can say for certain that
it works on Solaris, and probably some other platforms. I also have
been told that Bernard Urban has integrated unexec into guile-hobbit,
so this seems possible.
The hardest part, I would guess, is the autoconf stuff needed to get
everything built on all platforms. Just today in fact, I tried to
figure out how this works in emacs-20.3, and the going was slow...
