 Currently fog launches a new child process for each PT that is needed.

 It would be more efficient to re-use a PT that was already launched by
 Tor, but all the ways of doing this I can think of are quite messy.

 So we may never actually want to implement this ticket, but I am making it
 to record the issue.
