Ohh, uhm...  

The shared memory file is currently (rather haphazardly) called
"tmp/_.vsl".  At some point I planned on revisiting that but I
have not thought much about it.

Just including the listen port is not enough as you could have
two varnishes listening on specific IP# but same port.

Including the entire listen address seems needlessly cumbersome.

I guess assigning some kind of instance numbers is the way to
go...

The instance number would have to be specified to all the tools
then.

Ideas welcome.
