--- Comment #2 from Conrad Meyer <cem@freebsd.org> ---
If P_SYSTEM is removed from pid 1, is there *any* other process using it?=20
Looks like anything created with kproc_create(), which kind of makes sense,=
 but
we could/should also prevent debugging P_KPROC processes anyway (and that f=
lag
is also set).

I'm not sure that debugging pid 1 without this flag set actually functions
correctly; init is pretty special.  Have you tried using gdb on it with this
patch?
