Subject: [rfa/ppc] prologue parser tweaks

Hello,
Attached are two tweaks to the PPC skip_prologue method so that it works
better with glibc:
- handle glibc syscall
Without this an unwinder won't be able to find its way out of a system
call - it needs to figure out the location of a local label, see comment
for details.
- handle PIC code where the LR appears to be saved twice
It appears that skip_prologue code tried to handle this but missed an
edge case. Without this the wrong LR gets used when trying to unwind
out of GLIBC.
Ok for mainline?
Andrew

* rs6000-tdep.c: Add field "func_start".
(skip_prologue): New variable num_skip_syscall_insn, use to skip
over first half of a GNU/Linux syscall and update "func_start".
Record only the first LR save, use to skip over PIC code.
