I was just waiting for a `go ahead' from Roland.  Having talked to him
earlier today and got it, I updated the port such that it built and
checked the am33 port in glibc ports directory, sibling to the
libc directory in the glibc CVS repository.

I still need the elf.h patch below to be installed in the generic
code.

I enclose the complete port I checked in, for reference.
