> This patch will cause CouchDB to actually restart the server when a POST is made to /_restart
> The old way was unreliable as supervisors would shut things down asynchronously. This new way is much more brute force, which makes it more deterministic.
> This only really effects the test suite. I'm only pushing the patch through Jira to see if people see room for improvements.
> One improvement would be to add a timestamp for server boot time to the / response, but I seem to have avoided the need for that with my double GET magic.
> Do note: restart now drops any temporary config, hence the change to the reader_acls test.
