I need to write one.
The biggest diff from truss is that the program itself is dead simple,
since most of the work is done by the kernel and the data relayed to
the program as text. The program is really a fancier, fork-following
version of this script:
while (echo startsyscall > /proc/$1/ctl) cat /proc/$1/syscalltrace
All the formatting etc. is in the kernel.
