That's an excellent question. In general we can't solve all cases but perhaps we can find a middle-ground.

In the past, the 'r' flag on the executable determined if the process was dumpable. I expect that to still hold, but there may be other reasons why 'r' is required these days.

I don't know how widespread it would be for someone to put 'm' on a binary but not 'r' so that it couldn't be dumpable. That feels unlikely. Maybe we could automatically give 'mr' permissions to the files listed in the attachment specification?

Thanks
