Try --trace-children-skip. This allows skipping children based on the executable name. For example "--trace-children-skip=*/sed,*/expr,*/xgcc,*/cat,*/rm,*/stty" inhibits tracing into sed, expr, xgcc, cat, rm and stty. You need to put the entire flag in quotes to stop the shell expanding the wildcards. Be careful with this flag; make sure you don't include any process which might create a child process that you do want to trace into -- that is, make sure you don't include bash, sh, perl, python, etc, in the list.
