I am not sure, but it is probably pretty hopeless as there is a lot of
state that you would have to clean up like the server threads etc.

No. When a task is destroyed, all ports are destroyed and all
references to outside ports are released. This is handled in Mach
(similar to file descriptors in Unix).
