doesn't declaring it using printargs in the syscall list work ?

i'd be fine with merging it since it works as-is, but i'm not an strace

i would think that the existing ptrace ABI would remain unchanged, just the 
syscall #'s would get rewritten (as well as some get added/removed).  so most 
of your patch would still work ... just update the syscall list file.
