Peter Wemm 3ebc124838 Infrastructure tweaks to allow having both an Elf32 and an Elf64 executable ...

handler in the kernel at the same time.  Also, allow for the
exec_new_vmspace() code to build a different sized vmspace depending on
the executable environment.  This is a big help for execing i386 binaries
on ia64.   The ELF exec code grows the ability to map partial pages when
there is a page size difference, eg: emulating 4K pages on 8K or 16K
hardware pages.

Flesh out the i386 emulation support for ia64.  At this point, the only
binary that I know of that fails is cvsup, because the cvsup runtime
tries to execute code in pages not marked executable.

Obtained from:  dfr (mostly, many tweaks from me).
