[commit/RFC/multiarch/hpux] HPUX_ELF osabi init routine incorrectly registered

[Joel Brobecker <brobecker at gnat dot com>]

Hello,

I noticed while working on the hppa64 target that the HPUX_ELF gdbarch
initialization routine was not called during the gdbarch initialization.
It turns out that we where using the default bfd arch_info descriptor
which corresponds to a 32bit ABI. So when we checked the compatibility
between the arch_info that we registered and the arch_info determined by
the sniffer, we determined that they do not match, and therefore did not
call the assiocated initialization routine.

I fixed the problem the best way I can, by using a hard-coded number
corresponding to the arch_info that corresponds to hppa2.0w. I don't
know BFD too well yet, but it looks like we should really be defining
new #defines in archures.c for each hppa machine numbers, and then use
them here instead of my hard-coded value. I added a FIXME to remind us,
and will send a patch to binutils shortly. In them meantime, this fixes
the problem.

Any opinions, maybe?

        * hppa-hpux-tdep.c (_initialize_hppa_hpux_tdep): Use the correct
        bfd arch_info when registering the GDB_OSABI_HPUX_ELF initialization
        routine.

Tested on hppa64-hpux11.

(I have some other no-brainer patches coming, but I keep being interrupted
by other tasks :-().
