Oh, PTRACE_INTERRUPT is different. If it's scheduled, it will
eventually happen. Other traps may happen before but INTERRUPT trap
will take place before control is returned to userland.

Hmmm... I was thinking about writing a proper ptrace API doc with

it shouldn't change all that much and the amount of necessary
documentation would be too much for comments.
