Several months ago some guys from Ukrain were announcing special
patch for kernel which allows you to save task to file, and then later
to load it from this file.
Saving task to disk say every 5 seconds - is some sort of
checkpointing, so later you will be able to go back in time :-)
You might want to check l-k archives - I cannot recall correctly the
name of this stuff.
