This is the v4 of my patch correcting the core dump format.
(3 versions for patch 2, 3 versions for patch 1 starting at version 2
of patch 2...)

v4 adds some long alignments for 64bit targets,
   renames target_long_long to target_llong, and so on...

v3 introduces a new parameter of the target: the datatype alignment size.

Targets like i386, mips or ppc align (short, int, long, long long) on
(2, 4, 4, 8), target like x86_64 aligns on (2, 4, 8, 8)

but arm aligns on (2, 4, 4, 4) and m68k (680x0) on (2, 2, 2, 2).

And this knowledge is needed to correctly generate a core dump.

For other targets, please update the patch with your favorite one.

V2 introduces target_elf_prstatus alignment (to manage arm and m68k)

v1 corrects core dump for m68k
