I see now that the code was copied from tc-hppa.h, so the logic is
probably right.  I missed that first time I looked at the patch.

I think the ia64_frob_symbol function definition and its comment should
be surrounded by TE_HPUX ifdefs so it is only defined when it is used. 
I believe this is the usual procedure, see for example similar examples
in the tc-hppa.c file.

Also, I think you should have a prototype for the new function, also
inside TE_HPUX ifdefs.  Probably right next to the tc_frob_symbol macro
is the most convenient place to put it.

The patch is OK with these changes.  I don't recall if you have cvs
privileges.  Do I have to check this in?  I can make the remaining
changes if necessary.
