On at least x86 and ARM64, and as documented in the ptrace man page
a skipped system call will still cause a syscall exit ptrace stop.

Previous to this commit 32-bit ARM did not, resulting in strace
being confused when seccomp skips system calls.

This change also impacts programs that use ptrace to skip system calls.

Did this actually make it into the patch tracker? I don't see it in Incoming...
No, rejected at SMTP time (so bounced) due to it being sent from a
gmail.com address but _not_ going through gmail servers (so no DKIM
signature.)  Hence, looks like all the other fake gmail crud and gets
rejected outright.

I guess if Eugene didn't get the bounce notification, then gmail
decided to discard that as fake too!
