Maybe Marcel and Bruce know better. > The last mail i received on the subject if i remember right was Bruce's with the suggestion to use the state of the trace bit on entry to syscall() (not on exit as my first version did), which i then tested and which worked, and this is the version now in the port (files/patch-3.3-sys-sigtrap).
