A really easy way to tell you're rdealing with "init" from 
debuggers/dtrace/etc
I have dtrace scripts that follow the parent process chain until they 
get to pid 1.
in this case I'd probbaly want them to stop at the jail init (not 1)..

Also, should a jail init have immunity from signals from within the 
jail like init does?
