 The new gensetdefs gives unbootable kernels on i386's.  They hang before

I verified that the output of gensetdefs.pl is identical to that of
gensetdefs(1). Does the kernel boot if gensetdefs(1) is used?

Its not identical here, gensetdefs.pl uses .quad for the size of
the linker set (?), which should be .long for x86.  Also, I'm not
sure if the calculation for pointer size is correct, all the numbers
seemed 3 times too big in setdefs.h.

Ok, thanks. The commit has been reverted for all platforms except ia64.
I think I messed up my testing, but may easily have committed the wrong
gensetdefs.pl. I'll check it out...
