ACK 4-6.

Reminds me of an unrelated question - when a user writes:

nbdkit memory --run './command'

rather than

nbdkit memory --run '/path/to/command'

do we guarantee that the --run snippet will use the current working 
directory that nbdkit started under, even though nbdkit itself chdir's 
away to / as part of starting the plugin?  (If we do guarantee it, do we 
test it? If we haven't yet guaranteed it, should we?)
