mips ptrace.S fix

[Randall Stewart]

JC:

The two small patches (truss and ptrace) look fine to me.. and
definitely I can see things will not work without them..

The gdb patch will take me a while to chew on ;-)

I will commit the small patches later on today... I have a
problem with my svn right now.. have to sort that out first ;-)
