OTOH, by fetching registers using just one ptrace call you
get a lot more data.
So, this isn't *that* useful -- the debuggers already know how to fetch
and interpret regs - but it is also a cheap change. Why not?

This function looks ripe for de-inlining.

You added just two bits, why did you extend the mask by four bits?
IOW: shouldn't it be 0x00003ff instead?
