To those reviewing,

I've uploaded new versions of the patches since the post, replacing a few
more PRISON_CHEK() calls, and merging in a few other changes from my tree.

One interesting thing to consider is the different in access control
choices between ptrace() (relatively liberal) and ktrace() (slightly less
so).  ptrace() is more concerned with the process being setugid, whereas
ktrace is concerned with differences in credentials.  Given that the
functionality is very similar, we should probably combine the two access
control checks, and decide which is more appropriate for our needs.
