Pardon for the widespread crosspost. Hubertus has given me a patch and I did
the little bit required to have vserver 1.9.1 use RBCE. For those interested
in a kernel that combines CKRM w/ VSERVER, we can open up our CVS repository
for anonymous access. Please contact me if you'd like our snapshot rather
than patching these two things together manually yourself.

Cheers,
Marc

RBCE, while not a skeleton classifier, should be good enough for your
case. Its integrated into the CKRM patch (available from the main web page).

Hubertus already has a patch for adding support within RBCE for defining
rules using Vserver's xids. We'll add it to our next RBCE update.

I'm pretty sure he meant Linux-VServer (multiple contexts on one OS
image) - not clustering !
