Yes, this is broken. More precisely, this wasn't even supposed to work.

Even stracing of the sub-init itself (or global init btw) has problems,
the straced init is not protected from unwanted signals.

Yes. First of all, tracehook_report_clone_complete() reports the wrong pid nr,
as it seen inside the init's namespace. This is easy to fix, but I doubt this
can help. IIRC strace doesn't use PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG at all, it looks at eax
after syscall.
