  Modified files:
    sys/alpha/alpha      machdep.c 
  Log:
   - Drop the process lock before we call into ptrace_{read|write}_int or
     any functions that call them.  Calling proc_rwmem() with the proc lock
     held is not safe.  Currently, we're protected from any races by Giant.
     Eventually proc_rwmem() should require the proc lock and not Giant.
