That has nothing to do with it either. That's host, not target. A
GNU/Linux targetted GDB either doesn't have a simulator, or else has a
simulator which is expected to simulate GNU/Linux features - including
this one. The /proc interface is encapsulated in the native target, it
wouldn't be used for a sim.
