[PATCH] i386 extended ptrace

Hey,

This patch extends the ptrace system call by providing new requests
to trace memory differences made by system calls in a much cleaner way
than just to scan the entire user process memory area.
I think it's safe to merge with 2.4.17 because, when you don't enable it
in the config it won't compile into the kernel image. It would save me a
lot of time not to continually have to patch it against the latest
kernel my own; I've got other things to do.

Feedback is very welcome,
Frank.
