The benefit to stubbing out these functions is that callers don't have
#ifdefs. And caller code is always built (i.e. syntax checked by the
parser) so it helps avoid bitrot. vl.c:main() is already a long and
ugly function so it would be nice to avoid #ifdefs there.

User emulation does not have any way to control simpletrace today.
