I see what this is.  This is procfs_target::wait relying on
inferior_ptid.  Since the multi-target series, inferior_ptid
is null_ptid before we call target_wait:

static ptid_t
do_target_wait_1 (inferior *inf, ptid_t ptid,
		  target_waitstatus *status, int options)
{
  ptid_t event_ptid;
  struct thread_info *tp;

  /* We know that we are looking for an event in the target of inferior
     INF, but we don't know which thread the event might come from.  As
     such we want to make sure that INFERIOR_PTID is reset so that none of
     the wait code relies on it - doing so is always a mistake.  */
  switch_to_inferior_no_thread (inf);


I'm working on a patch.
