    I'm doing checkpointing periodically on a simple, single-threaded process, 
like this:
  if (rename (name.c_str(), oldname.c_str()) != 0 and errno != ENOENT)
    die ("rename failed");
  cr_request_file (name.c_str());
  cr_enter_cs(id);
  cr_leave_cs(id);
  if (remove (oldname.c_str()) != 0 and errno != ENOENT)
    die ("remove failed");

I guess this forces the process to wait until the checkpoint is complete.  I 
wonder if I can do something more efficient?  I'd rather avoid having to mess 
with callbacks, though.
