Can someone please test the patch at
http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/alpha.ptrace.patch and make sure that gdb
and other utils that use ptrace still work ok? If so, can you retry it with
the ptrace() syscall marked MP safe (change STD in front of ptrace() in
syscalls.master to MSTD and do a 'make init_sysent.c' in sys/kern) with
WITNESS on and verify that it works ok? Thanks.
