monitor part done..

still a bit doubtful if sysv ipc really is good here, or if we would be
better off switching to using a normal STREAM IPC like for most other
helpers. (a DGRAM IPC channel could also work, but delivery is not
guaranteed on all platforms)

One benefit of switching to using a normal IPC channel is that the need
for comm_quick_poll_required() would go away, also getting rid of the
related 400KB/s cache hits issue under low loads.. (4KB reads, 10ms poll
interval)
