The patch below allows GDB to again read am33_2.0-unknown-linux-gnu
core files.  This change is necessitated by the following change to
the kernel:

    https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/11/204

In that patch, the size of ELF_NGREG was decreased.  

I am intentionally leaving the old case in place so that core files made
by older kernels can still be read too.

Okay?

	* elf32-am33lin.c (elf32_am33lin_grok_prstatus): Add case
	to correspond to a smaller ELF_NGREG defined by the kernel.
