I've created jimb-ppc64-linux-20030528-branch, to hold work on the
PPC64 Linux port of GDB.  The port contributed by IBM, which is
available on jimb-ppc64-linux-2003050-branch, has a number of
shortcomings (it's not multi-arched; based on old sources; etc.)  So
I've started to re-do the port piece by piece, referring to IBM's
patch, to put it in a form more suitable for inclusion in the current
sources.
