I can offer a FreeBSD jail[1] on my new german server, which I think
could be adequate[2] for the task.

It sports a FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE kernel and uses ZFS as root filesystem.
(the two disks are in mirror)

Due to the IPv4 address shortage the provider is now requesting "good
reasons" in order to receive any IPv4 address after the first (and up to
4 max), so I'm not *sure* I can guarantee that (but I hope so, and there
can be ways to avoid the need for that, with a bit of tinkering).
