I realize I am sort of asking you my pet feature, but I think that by framing your feature (debugging of dead processes) as a special case of this (debugging exiting processes), we can avoid most of the problematic issues with this PR (divergence of implementation, impossibility of testing).

I'm in! I always thought this was a great segue for `PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT` as a feature. We recently had someone else leave our team and I'm diverting to finish up some of the ELF Core work (hence you've seen my patches), but once I get that wrapped up I'll be back working on this.
