this involves the sign-extension of the high and low "word". Both
of which are 32-bit. The bug is especially harmful on ia64, where
0x9fffffffe0000000 is a common address (base of register stack).
This was invariably displayed as 0xffffffffe0000000.
The sign-extension is fixed by using {b|l}e{16|32|64}dec() where
applicable. Since elfdump(1) is not a bootstrap tool, dependency
on these functions is not a problem.
teach it about ia64 specific section types, dynamic tags and machine
type. This is a mostly insignificant change given the amount of
work that this tool obviously needs...
