it's not so much a matter of whether it's provided, but whether it can be 
safely included.  ia64 has a history of being a pita to include their ptrace 
headers, but maybe that doesn't matter to gdbserver.

might be worth seeing if we can do a release with an unconditional include and 
see if anyone complains.
