For better results with gdb I suggest to kill SIGSTOP the monitor before
attaching gdb to any of the reponders or the providers, this way the
monitor will be prevented from sending termination signals to the
children. However, don't do this for long, only for short periods and
kill SIGCONT back the monitor immediately after.
