configure now automatically detects the type of arg3 in ptrace,
and sets PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3. But the code mostly uses the historical
PTRACE_ARG3_TYPE. I suggest we do a global search-and-replace of
the latter by the former. There are a bunch of C file that use
the old macro. Once the macro is gone, we can delete their definitions
in the config files as an obvious change.

Opinions?

List of C files that use it:

List of config files that define it:

        config/alpha/nm-linux.h
        config/alpha/nm-osf.h
        config/i386/nm-linux64.h
        config/ia64/nm-linux.h

        config/powerpc/nm-aix.h
        config/powerpc/nm-ppc64-linux.h
        config/rs6000/xm-aix4.h
        config/s390/nm-linux.h
        config/sparc/nm-linux.h

Unfortunately, I will probably not be around to make that change.
But this is the kind of change a guy named cagney has become an expert
at doing. :-).

And we also need to remove it from the gdbint doc, btw.
