[IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-down
ia64 expects following vm layout: == low memory [register-stack grows up] [memory-stack grows down] == high memory But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if you were very unlucky right on top of it!). Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting from the actual address of the memory stack.
