Comment:

 if -spersistent is taken down before it has a chance to close the
 currently open segment properly, all objects therin will be lost on
 restart.

 Segments gets closed when they are full and when the CLI stop command is
 issued.

 You don't say how you restart varnishd, but if you use the CLI to give it
 stop and start commands, your objects should survive.  If you kill the
 process, it won't be able to close the segment.

 The p*.vtc testcases indicates this works as expected.
