Comment (by jessicah):
I wonder if some of this could be alleviated by using node refs to the
activated packages, such as when their entry refs change, the package kit
doesn't need to worry, and can still work with the nodes themselves no
matter where they moved to.
I suppose the only downside to that is that it would hold file descriptors
open, if I'm understanding the BNode documentation correctly... I guess
the package kit doesn't hold files open currently, hence leading to the
behaviour we currently have?
