I've noticed that if I strace a process, the original parent gets -ENOCHILD from its wait() call.
Is that fixable? Presumably, strace shouldn't disturb anything, and the problem shows in a client which is either looping endlessly, or dying because it doesn't expect its child processes to vanish from under its nose.
Example: "find ... | strace -f xargs ..." or similar.
