I tested the following on linux-2.4.16 + your_patch:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	pid_t pid;
	int ret, status;

	pid = fork();
	if (pid == -1)
		exit(1);
	if (pid == 0) {
		raise(SIGSTOP);
		while (1)
			;
		_exit(1);
	}

	ret = waitpid(pid, &status, WUNTRACED);
	if (ret == -1) {
		perror("waitpid (1)");
		exit(1);
	}

	ret = ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL);
	if (ret == -1) {
		perror("PTRACE_ATTACH");
		exit(1);
	}
	ret = waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
	if (ret == -1) {
		perror("waitpid (2)");
		exit(1);
	}
	ret = ptrace(PTRACE_KILL, pid, NULL, NULL);
	if (ret == -1) {
		perror("PTRACE_KILL");
		exit(1);
	}

	return 0;
}

Test result:

    hirofumi@devron (ptrace)[1111]$ ps ax|grep ptrace
      688 tty1     S      0:00 grep ptrace
    hirofumi@devron (ptrace)[1112]$ ls
    ptrace  ptrace.c
    hirofumi@devron (ptrace)[1113]$ ./ptrace
    hirofumi@devron (ptrace)[1114]$ ps ax|grep ptrace
      691 tty1     R      0:04 ./ptrace
      693 tty1     S      0:00 grep ptrace
    hirofumi@devron (ptrace)[1115]$

Do I misunderstand something?
