What is needed from this file ?  ie if you leave it out, does 
hpux-core.c fail to compile ?  Assuming that it does, can the values and 
definitions that it needs be found in other header files ?

Assuming that the values and definitions are not available elsewhere 
then it will be necessary to remove HP-UX corefile support from builds 
of the toolchain on HP-UX 11.31 installations.  Have a look at the code 
in bfd/configure.in that initialises the COREFILE variable.  This will 
need to be adapted for the HP-UX 11.31 (and presumably later releases as 
well ?)

Cheers
