Your post has put me off for a while. Then I took a look at the code and
noticed that it actually uses linked lists mostly.

So I decided to just feel lucky and add two CLI commands: 'zap reload'
to call setup_zap(1) and 'zap restart' to call setup_zap(0) .

Surprisingly, on my first test "zap reload" segfaulted and "zap restart"
managed to register a shiny new channel.
