FYI, if you've got a recent toolchain, you need the
attached patch for gnu-efi for it to build correctly
(thanks David!).

* gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Include .IA_64.unwind and
.IA_64.unwind_info in .data segment to avoid EFI load error
"ImageAddress: pointer outside of image" error due to the .dynsym
relocations against these sections.
* gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: fixed typo: .space directive had constant
100 hardcoded instead of using MAX_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS
macro. Duh.
