If an error is found during startup, the process will just call restart_kom.
This makes it hard to find memory leaks that occur during problematic startups,
since a lot of memory references will be held.
It would be better to let each module have two functions: startup and cleanup.
Build a framework that calls each startup in turn.  If a startup function
indicates that it failed, all the cleanup functions that correspond to
successful startup functions would be called, in reverse order.
