The original definitions came from <asm/user.h>. They are used by
ptrace. They are have different meanings than those from ucontext.h. 

It is too bad that the same names, gregset_t and fpregset_t, are used
for different purposes. It is wrong to include ucontext.h in procfs.h
to get "gregset_t" and "fpregset_t". I guess we can modify gdb to use
struct user_fpregs_struct and struct user_regs_struct directly. On the
other hand, it will be tricky to make gdb compile under glibc 2.0, 2.1,
2.2 and libc 5.
