There is already PT_IO support code in inf-ptrace.c.  It makes sense
to keep it all together.  I guess I could move all that code into a
seperate bsd-nat.c file, but that's quite a big undertaking.  And
inf-ptrace.c *BSD really is the primary user of inf-ptrace.c anyway.
The various Linux targets only need it to support ancient versions of
the Linux kernels; linux-nat.c ovverrides everything except for
to_fetch_registers and to_store_registers.  And those are overridden
by most, if not all, *-linux-nat.c files.

Cheers,
