I don't see what can simply be done here, as Linux kernel evolution forbids a
debugger to attach to a running program

the "easy" solution would be to let wineserver get the ptrace capability

the other only viable solution would be to modify the current process startup
scheme so that wineserver (which is the only place where we call ptrace) is the
parent (or grand*-parent) of every wine process

anyway, issue is located in wineserver, not winedbg (so changed component)
