ok, one more twist...

there are some hpux specific solib methods that are required. i'm
assuming that these should go into the gdbarch_tdep vector, i.e. i'm
adding these to the hppa tdep structure:

  /* These are solib-dependent methods.  They are really HPUX only, but
     we don't have a HPUX-specific tdep vector at the moment.  */
  CORE_ADDR (*solib_thread_start_addr) (struct so_list *so);
  CORE_ADDR (*solib_get_got_by_pc) (CORE_ADDR addr);
  CORE_ADDR (*solib_get_solib_by_pc) (CORE_ADDR addr);

and these pointers are initizlied by som_solib_select () or
pa64_solib_select () to the corresponding implementation. this will get
rid of the PA_SOM_ONLY hack i added some time back to get
hppa64-hp-hpux11.11 to build...

is this ok?
