I favor the Erlang approach where a system is a web of interconnected, redundant processes that terminate on errors.  I've found this design an extremely hard sell in the internet server world though.  The design takes more planning and people are in too much of a hurry.

I should add that I'm hoping the message passing model in D will help encourage reliable system design.  With thread isolation it should be pretty easy to move parts of a program into separate processes as need dictates.
