2.1.109: Watchpoints persisting after debugger exits?

After debugging a program using watchpoints, some programs (ls, for
example) ceased to work---they terminated due to a `Trace/breakpoint
trap'. Other users were affected as well. This seems to be some kind
of kernel bug, doesn't it? (I wasn't able to reproduce it with
2.1.115 just now, though.)
