Ahh nice!
On a related note, do you think it would be possible to allow ktrace to use 
pipes? I have a script which uses ktrace & kdump to monitor actions on files 
so I can more easily generate port/package plists and having the intermediate 
dump file is a waste (although I trim what is being dumped so it's not a huge 
problem)
