Just a small report to explain what I am doing...

Almost done, but we should avoid the races with exec somehow.
But this is minor.
I tried to test this code as much as I can. Again, I do not use
gdb at all, I am using the scripts which try to really stress ugdb.
Found 2 bugs in ugdb.ko, the second one is not nice but at least
I have the temporary fix.
However. I spent all Monday trying to resolve the new bug, and
so far I do not understand what happens. Extremely hard to reproduce,
and the kernel just hangs silently, without any message.
So far I suspect the proble in utrace.c, but this time I am not sure.
Will continue tomorrow...
Oleg.
