Subjectbuild problems on architectures where FIXADDR_* stuff is not constant
Hello!

Since there are architectures where FIXADDR_* stuff is not constant (e.g. UML),
I propose this patch that allows such architectures to build. (now compilation
dies with complaints about using not constant value as struct initialiser).
Here is my proposed patch, or may be there is a better way?

This is against latest 2.5 bk tree.

Bye,
Oleg
