You might find it useful to look at BProc, specifically its Virtual Memory
Area Dumper.  It is used for process migration from a cluster's front
end node to its compute nodes.  I don't believe anyone has used it to
checkpoint a process.

http://bproc.sourceforge.net/c268.html#AEN279

Also, are you familiar with http://www.checkpointing.org ?
