+            For optimization purposes many kernels don't have the
+            callee saved registers into the save_state structure upon
+            entry into the kernel for a syscall; the optimization
+            is usually turned off if the process is being traced so
+            that the debugger can get full register state for the
+            process.
+             
+            This scheme works well except for two cases:
+
+              * Attaching to a process when the process is in the
+              kernel performing a system call (debugger can't get
+              full register state for the inferior process since
+              the process wasn't being traced when it entered the
+              system call).
+
+              * Register state is not complete if the system call
+              causes the process to core dump.
+
+
+            The following heinous code is an attempt to deal with
+            the lack of register state in a core dump.  It will
+            fail miserably if the function which performs the
+            system call has a variable sized stack frame.  */
