Hi,

I've committed the attached patch which adds 64 bit support for the 
symbol table and string table in the elf loader. Tested on an internal 
port which required the support.

	* elfload.c (readElfFile): symTabEntry is now 24 bytes in length.
	Add 64 bit support for SHT_STRTAB and SHT_SYMTAB. Add 64 bit support
	for reading the symbol table.
