[RFA]: patch to ia64.inc in gdb.asm testsuite

[Andrew Cagney]

> The attached patch is needed to get the gdb.asm testsuite running successfully for ia64.  A recent patch changed the link step to use the target linker rather than gcc.  The old method was defaulting dynamic loading.  The new code causes a static executable to be created with the first insn being that of gdbasm_startup.  Previously, the first insn was just a mov, but this should be an alloc insn.  Without this change, a SIGILL is caused for the first insn and the tests all fail.

If it works for you :-)  I'm sure there's going to be more of this fallout.
