This patch adds a new target for running ppc64 little-endian binaries in
user mode.  Only change to configure is included in this patch.  Patch for
loading and executing LE binaries will be submitted later.

Please put the configure patch as the final patch in your
series for handling LE PPC binaries -- we don't want to
allow users to turn on a new target until it is actually
implemented. (It's also hard to tell this is the correct configure
change without seeing it in the context of the necessary
linux-user adjustments.)

thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. I will send out the reset and make the configure
change the last one in the series.
