Subject: Re: Mutual debugging of 2 processes can stuck in unkillable stopped
 state

Hi Igor,

So. As expected, they sleep in EVENT_EXIT _after_ you have already sent SIGKILL.

Oh. I can only repeat that PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT must die ;) Or at least we should
finally define its semantics.

Igor, thanks for your report, but (I think) this has nothing to do with mutual
debugging. I'll return to this problem in a couple of days, I'm a bit busy right
now.

Thanks,

Oleg.
