 No, I would like to be able to specify my own resolver command that is
 executed by arm.  That is, I'd add another options to armrc, e.g.
 queries.resolverfile.  This entry links to a python (!) file that
 implements a simple class/function/whatever (I don't know python :( ).
 Arm passes the <pid> to this thingy, and the class/function/whatever
 returns the connections just like procTools.getConnections.
