Check out http://www.gsyc.inf.uc3m.es/~LiS/ for information on the Linux
Streams project. I'm not sure, but they may have some working code
already. While streams suck from a performance standpoint, there seem to
be quite a few commercial vendors that are avoiding Linux because it
lacks them. Seems like a catch 22 to me, Linux suffers to some degree
either way.

Cheers,
