    The only exploit I could find for 2.4 was fixed by Alan Cox in 2.4.1-ac19,
    so the code as I posted this morning works as expected. ie PTRACE_ATTACH:
    operation not permitted.
    
    If you've got any other exploits that you think should be tested, if you
    can send me a pointer to the code I'll try them out.
