You seem to be experienced with fuzzing indeed.

I think there are two tracks that could be covered in this domain:
- fuzzing strace function calls at the unit level. Even though this
may be best covered by carefully hand crafted unit tests, a small dose
of fuzzing may help.
- fuzzing system calls and ensure that strace can keep up and trace
these alright (assuming the kernel would not crash..)
Looking at something like Dave Jones' trinity might help there.

List members will at best consider HTML as annoying and at worst as
plain rude and bad manners.
