procfs.c is native only, the deprecated macros being defined in an 
nm-*.h file.

I'll clarify the comments so that it is clear that:

- it is native only

- in all likelyhood all applicable current systems support this 
mechanism so no autoconf test is needed (someone needs to do a proper 
analysis)

- its a configuration change, possibly involving an autoconf test

This is neither deprecating a feature, nor deprecating a system.
