Check the info doc, sec. 4.10. This is only supported on GNU/Linux
2.5.60+ and HP-UX 11.x+. If your platform doesn't support it, the best
option is to insert a sleep() statement at the beginning of your child
code and then have a new gdb session attach to the child process before
the sleep expires.
