Unfortunately you've already introduced a security hole in wu.ftpd if you dont modify it
put //ipc/statusfile
stomp... and ipc may contain stuff you dont want outsiders reading. I'd actually like chrooted stuff not be able to access the master /ipc. In fact being able to mount further /ipc namespaces inside chrooted environments which are seperate from the main one would be the good thing
Thats another step into supporting partitioning of applications on Linux
