I did more than strictly necessary, that's all. Andreas is correct that
elfxx-ia64.c only needs a 64-bit host type and minor changes. Larger
changes are needed, along the lines of my relax_brl patch, if the 32-bit
version of elfxx-ia64.c is to compile without a 64-bit host type.
Sorry to add to the confusion..
