Take a look at utrace in -mm, it offers a completely backwards compatible
ptrace() syscall implemented as a module ontop of it. utrace looks like the

http://people.redhat.com/roland/utrace/2.6-current/0-intro.txt
Think of ptrace() implemented using utrace as ptrace that "Sucks Less TM".
Maybe Andy will let utrace out of -mm for 2.6.23.
