[Xen-devel] mkelf32 for 64-bit machines from powerpc

["Patrick G. Bridges" <bridges@xxxxxxxxxx>]

While attempting to get xen to crosscompile for the opteron from a  
powerpc machine, I discovered a small bug in mkelf32. mkelf32 assumes  
that u64 is an unsigned long on powerpc machines, causing it to fail  
when crosscompiling opteron binaries.
Simple fix: on line 37, change
#if defined(__i386__)
to
#if defined(__i386__) || defined(__ppc__)

A better long-term fix that uses things like uint64_t might be  
preferable, but this was sufficient to get things to compile and xen  
to build. I haven't tried to boot xen on qemu yet; that's the next  
step once I fix some minor problems causing chk build to fail on curl  
and zlib.
