For something like this, just run ntserv manually from the compiling
directory (./ntserv your.hostname) and fire up a client.  If you haven't
changed any of the structures in shared memory, nothing bad will happen,
and you haven't changed any code in daemonII, so that won't need
reinstalled for the test.

However, this sort of kludge worked well enough that I never got a nice
debugging setup like Bob is thinking of set up on bigbang ;(
