When you try to connect to a process not owned by the current user, the
following exception is thrown:

ptrace.attach: Operation not permitted (process XXXX)
   at frysk.proc.LinuxTask.sendAttach (FryskGui)
   at frysk.proc.TaskState$1.handleAttach (FryskGui)
   at frysk.proc.Task.performAttach (FryskGui)
   at frysk.proc.ProcState$Attaching.initialState (FryskGui)

(EG: try attaching to init)
