Also, on OSX you have access to (mostly) the full power of dtrace, so you can do diagnostics on closed-source, debug-stripped running programs that make strace look small by comparison.

Just tried it on iTunes and it doesn't seem to work at all.

I already allowed myself to debug my own system by disabling "System Integrity" in recovery mode.

A quick Google for `PT_DENY_ATTACH` and dtrace should solve that
