My comment on this -- this is yet incomplete the extract of infection 
code from the criu sources. What this set does is moves the respective
criu-side functionality from criu into libcompel.a library. The remaining
part is

* move pie-side infection code into compel/plugins/std/
* write some simple helpers in compel that are currently given to
  it by criu via callbacks (e.g. proc parsing)

and, of course, before first compel release we'll need to look through
compel/include/uapi and clean it up.
