Alright.  Indeed, the original submission left me wondering whether
the "We" in "We need" might even be talking about a different libc
than what the original port was done against (if not, weird that this
didn't come up then), and if so, then I have to wonder whether
just switching to asm/ptrace.h might be breaking the build against
other libc (glibc?), and therefore we might need to include both.
So mainly I'm just looking for a little more confirmation and
more extended description for the commit log / archives.
