This focuses mostly on simulating unreliabable networking. Is there a tool, perhaps some LD_PRELOAD wrapper, that can simulate unreliable everything? I'm talking memory errors, disks going away, fake high I/O load, etc?

I once wrote a library for python that injected itself into the main modules (os, sys, etc) and generated random failures all over the place. It worked very well for writing reliable applications, but it only worked for pure python code. I don't own the code, so I can't open source it unfortunately.
