Some dumb questions then: I notice that a few arches declare
struct user_regs_struct in glibc, most of the others in the
kernel. If I were to make pt_regs completely kernel-private,
then I really do need to have struct user_regs_struct declared
the kernel headers, right?

Putting a printk into case PTRACE_POKEUSR seemed to show that
gdb was using this (and was somehow mis-numbering the registers
... sigh.) Are you saying that the default should handle this?
