Rich Felker 0fbd7d6683 fix broken struct shmid_ds on powerpc (32-bit)
the kernel structure has padding of the shm_segsz member up to 64
bits, as well as 2 unused longs at the end. somehow that was
overlooked when the powerpc port was added, and it has been broken
ever since; applications compiled with the wrong definition do not
correctly see the shm_segsz, shm_cpid, and shm_lpid members.

fixing the definition just by adding the missing padding would break
the ABI size of the structure as well as the position of the time64
shm_atime and shm_dtime members we added at the end. instead, just
move one of the unused padding members from the original end (before
time64) of the structure to the position of the missing padding. this
preserves size and preserves correct behavior of any compiled code
that was already working. programs affected by the wrong definition
need to be recompiled with the correct one.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
