It would probably break some signals as a traced process isn't
properly considered to be the child of its parent process in
Linux. When a process is traced, you have to do a for_each_task
instead of traversing the child pointers in the task structure to find
all children. To do this you need to know if a process is traced and
act accordingly. This would be fixable as a side-effect of the
"pidhash" patch, but I wouldn't consider it very important until
people actually start doing the above :-).
