[9front] [PATCH] remove hacky /proc/1/regs check in libmach

[9front] [PATCH] remove hacky /proc/1/regs check in libmach

[Jacob Moody]

While reading through this code I noticed what seemed to be this hack.
I would expect libmach to parse binary files on disk the same no matter what the
/proc of the program doing the analysis looks like.

 From my reading of the code, I dont think we still care about the difference
between the 4000 and 3000 chips do we? My quick look did not seem to indicate
we currently have a kernel for it, nor can I see a way to get vc to generate
a binary with this magic anyhow.
