Changes in PTRACE_POKEUSER hw breakpoint have broken several games that are
being ran through wine.
I must point out that I did not do the bisect, the OP in the wine bug
report below did that.
I brought this here because of the dislike among developers in breaking
user space.  I don't
know how to proceed from here. Either, wine should adopt code changes or
the commit below should
be reverted.

That ^, is not a valid mailing list address.

Please contact all of the developers who contributed to this patch, and
the proper mailing list (you can get that by running the patch through
scripts/get_maintainer.pl) about this, and they will be glad to work on
resolving the issue.

thanks,
