Is that it?  I'm somewhat adverse to trying random undocumented
options since they manage to crash my system with astounding
regularity (case in point: "fsys main srv -AWP replica", the command
line suggested in the original email by Presotto, silently hung my
fossil requiring a reboot).

Here's what the man page says:

          srv [ -APWdp ] name

then later:

          Srv behaves like listen but uses /srv/name rather than a
          network address.  With the -p flag, srv edits a list of con-
          sole services rather than 9P services.  See the [fsys] open
          command below for a description of the -APW options.


To be honest to the man page, the -d flag is explained in the case of
'listen' and should be obvious to anyone with half a brain who read it
thoroughly, sadly this is not the case with me :)
