[RFA]: patch to ia64.inc in gdb.asm testsuite

[Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn@redhat.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 686 bytes --]

The attached patch is needed to get the gdb.asm testsuite running 
successfully for ia64.  A recent patch changed the link step to use the 
target linker rather than gcc.  The old method was defaulting dynamic 
loading.  The new code causes a static executable to be created with the 
first insn being that of gdbasm_startup.  Previously, the first insn was 
just a mov, but this should be an alloc insn.  Without this change, a 
SIGILL is caused for the first insn and the tests all fail.

Ok to commit?

        * gdb.asm/ia64.inc (gdbasm_startup): Make sure first instruction
        executed is an alloc instruction.
