 In the function under_debugger() (debug.ipp) the terminating condition for
 the while loop is
 pid != 0, which is for a normal solaris installation correct.

 But under a container the init-pid is zsched, which doesn't have the
 pid==1 and the ppid==0.
 So you have to test for ppid == pid.

 The following patch should fix the problem.

 -        pid = pi.parent_pid();
 +        pid = (pi.parent_pid() == pid ? 0 : pi.parent_pid());
      }

      return false;
