There is a patch file strace-fix-arm-bad-syscall.patch
available at:
http://www.fluff.org/ben/patches/strace/
Adding this patch to packaging/strace works (Tested with 
an arm920T plattform).

I've also hit this with strace-4.5.14 running on an IXP425 processor
(armv5b toolchain).  The patch supplied by hagepe fixes it for me as well.

This patch fixes a problem with strace that arm didn't get the fix
that has been applied to the other architectures to filter out fake
syscall events created by execve()

I am the original authour of this patch.
