This would be a lot more work than just adding varieties of Unix to
the pool, but if someone wants to do something _major_ for diversity
and platform hardening at the same time, they might like to think
about writing a relay daemon for MirageOS: see
http://www.openmirage.org/  I say "writing", not "porting", because
the whole point of Mirage is that everything is done in OCaml.
