In fact it is broken even if it the child/tracee is single-threaded.

And I failed to find a simple fix which is not visible to user-space.
It would be nice if you can ack/nack at least the changelog in 1/2,
I mean the note about SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED.

And unless I missed something WEXITED is broken too, so I'll probably
send more changes.
