Comment 2 Dmitry V. Levin 2006-03-30 00:41:56 UTC 
Similar patch was submitted to strace-devel@ recently, see
https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=10061791&forum_id=3912

Patch submitted by Ulrich is slightly better, but each of them has advantages
and drawbacks.
So I'd like to see these two patches merged.

4.5.15 in rawhide and in updates for fc5 and fc6 fixes this.
