No, opening such file is like writing data into a file.

It cannot if it crashes in between. It would be OK if it can do so right
after the inferior call. Which I realize now it can, after the inferior call
returns (wait->SIGTRAP) GDB can do PTRACE_CONT(SIGSTOP), wait->SIGSTOP and now
it can do PTRACE_GETREGS etc. while after _exit() it will be like after
PTRACE_DETACH(0) and the debuggee still remains `(T) stopped', doesn't it?
Thanks,
