sysctl(7) has

             security.pax.mprotect.ptrace
                     This variable allows ptrace(2) to override PaX 
MPROTECT
                     permissions.  It can have the following values:
                     0   Does not let override any permissions.
                     1   Disables PaX MPROTECT from processes that start
                         executing while traced (default).
                     2   Bypasses PaX MPROTECT for all processes being 
traced.


you need security.pax.mprotect.ptrace=2
