[Patch 21/21] Compat ELF class Core generation support

From: Suzuki K. Poulose
Date: Tue Dec 14 2010 - 05:27:33 EST


Add full support for the compat ELF class objects. The gencore-compat-elf.c
reuses the gencore-elf.c, by renaming the ABI structures and functions.
(Inspired by compat_binfmt_elf.c)
