designing anything around the current truss ioctl decoding mechanism
is kinda broken, since the current truss ioctl decoding mechanism
itself is kinda broken.  currently truss assumes that the ioctl
numbering space is unique across all file descriptors.  there are no
guarantess that this is true.  truss eventually needs to be made
smarter so that i knows what ioctls are supported on a given fd, and
then it can decode the ioctls appropriately.  i thought there was
already a bug filed on this issue, but i can't seem to find it now...
