This looks like two fixes in one, so this should be split. :)

I'll send a series soon that will include this bit, since I don't want
to collect these kinds of arch-specific things in the functions. (And
the xtensa one went in without my review!)

This should be part of the fixture struct, not the variant.

i.e. if a member isn't initialized in FIXTURE_VARIANT_ADD, it shouldn't
be defined in FIXTURE_VARIANT. :)

So, to be clear this is _only_ an issue for the ptrace side of things,
yes? i.e. seccomp's setting of the return value will correct stick?
