hacker-tools

["Joseph E. Sacco, PhD" <joseph_sacco comcast net>]

With the advent of a working valgrind for linuxPPC

        http://valgrind.org/downloads/variants.html?pmk

I have managed to build all of the hacker-tools.

Updates:
* mlview: 0.7.1 -> 0.8

 
hacks:
* memprof-0.5.1
I have done an initial hack modifying three troublesome source files:
* bfdutils.c  
* memintercept-utils.c  
* stack-frame.c

to get memprof to build. 

The patches for the first two routines arise from coding changes in
libbfd since 2002.

The patch for stack-frame.c is a blatant hack to work around some i386
specific code. Constructing the "correct" patch should be a simple task
for someone who is actually fluent in PPC assembler. I am not...
