Patch committed. Note, I updated the comment per requested.  Note, I
realized I only did part of the requested update initially and then did
then removed the ptrace () comment.  The patch didn't get updated with
the removal of the ptrace () comment.  I had to do a second commit to
get the ptrace () comment fixed correctly.  Sorry for the screw up.
Here are the two commits.
