 Items we (currently) plan to finish in the ptrace(2) field:
 
- - merge hardware watchpoint (breakpoint) support with HEAD
  - verify ppid of core dump generated with PT_DUMPCORE
    it must point to the real parent, not tracer
  - adapt OpenBSD regress test (regress/sys/ptrace/ptrace.c) for the ATF context

  - add support for detecting equivalent events to PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC,
    PTRACE_O_TRACECLONE, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT from Linux
  - exect(3) rething or remove -- maybe PT_TRACE_ME + PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC?

 and of course: fix as many bugs as possible.
