oho nice

I wrote an upstart script that keeps the old daemon up in the event of a
reboot. Foolishly, I put it in our existing mercurial repository for gate
related stuff at pony.noise:/var/hg/gate/tools/hardware

I'll back that out now, and push you a change on github. You might want to
consider keeping it in the /var/hg/gate mercurial repository anyway. The
README now points the curious to your github repository.
