gdb 6.6 sim/erc32 does not parse -E option


Hi,

Apparently gdb 6.6 passes a -E endian option
to the sim_open hook.  The erc32 simulator
does not parse this option and produces
a error message like this:

(gdb) tar sim
unknown option -E
open of big failed
Connected to the simulator.

The attached patch is in the style of the
existing code and silently eats the -E option
if the endian value is big or little.

   * interf.c: Add parsing of -E <endian> option
   to eliminate error message.
