xmon has a bug (copied from kdb) that when showing a list of processes
the debugger is listed as the parent, if a processes is being debugged.

This is silly, and I expect it is rare enough no has noticed in
practice.  Update the code to use real_parent so that it is clear xmon
does not want to display a debugger as the parent of a process.
