Fix for bug#2999

In frysk-import/lib/dw/tests/cni/TestLib.cxx, getFuncAddr() wants 
to get the function address via its function name in source code, 
but it is not true on PPC64.  According to PowerPC 64-bit ABI, 
function name is only a function descriptor, not entry address,
and the first doubleword of function descriptor contains the 
address of the entry point of the function.

2006-08-07  Yao Qi  <qiyaoltc@cn.ibm.com>

	* lib/dw/tests/cni/TestLib.cxx (getFuncAddr): Return function
	address instead of function descriptor on PPC64.
	* lib/dw/tests/TestDwfl.java: Take powerpc into account, and
	change the expected line numbers.

Rebuild frysk on X86, X86_64, and PPC64, and no FAIL any more in
lib.dw.tests.TestDwfl after this patch applied.

OK to commit?  Thanks!
