#     PowerPC64: Add __private_ss field to TCB header
#     
#     The TCB header on Intel contains a field __private_ss that is used
#     to efficiently implement the -fsplit-stack GCC feature.
#     
#     In order to prepare for a possible future implementation of that
#     feature on powerpc64, we'd like to reserve a similar field in
#     the TCB header as well.  (It would be good if this went in with
#     or before the ELFv2 patches to ensure that this field will be
#     available always in the ELFv2 environment.)
#     
#     The field needs to be added at the front of tcbhead_t structure
#     to avoid changing the ABI; see the recent discussion when adding
#     the EBB fields.
