GLIBC: support for AT_BASE_PLATFORM

GLIBC: support for AT_BASE_PLATFORM

One patch added to GLIBC:

Support for AT_BASE_PLATFORM in LD_SHOW_AUXV

A new auxv entry was introduced in kernel 2.6.27 in order to address a problem in IBM Power systems running in compatibility mode. This patch adds support for the AT_BASE_PLATFORM entry, so it displays correctly when LD_SHOW_AUXV=1.

Discussion was held here.
