+Sometimes it may already be helpful to capture a translator's `stdout` and
+`stderr`, for example like this:
+
+ $ sudo settrans -fgap ↩
+ /servers/socket/2 ↩
+ /bin/sh -c '/hurd/pfinet -i eth0 -a [...] > /tmp/stdout 2> /tmp/stderr'
+ $ [...]
+ $ cat /tmp/stdout
+ NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0
+ IP Protocols: ICMP, UDP, TCP
+ TCP: Hash tables configured (ehash 65536 bhash 65536)
+ $ cat /tmp/stderr
+ pfinet: ../../hurd.work/pfinet/ethernet.c:196: ethernet_xmit: Unexpected error: (os/device) invalid IO size.
+
+(Trying to run [[GDB]] in this case was of no help -- due to a bug in GDB
+(supposedly) it wouldn't catch the fault.)
