[Bf-committers] IA64 Itanium Support

[Wayne Vieira]

 I just got done building blender for an SGI Prism(OS=linux, CPU=Itanium2),
and things seem to have gone well.  I haven't tested everything, but the
build seemed to go okay, with very few changes.  The biggest thing I notices
was that ia64 wasn't listed in nan_link.mk.  I changed the following line:

  ifeq ($(CPU),$(findstring $(CPU), "i386 x86_64"))

To

  ifeq ($(CPU),$(findstring $(CPU), "i386 x86_64 ia64"))

As that seemed to satisfy all requirements.  Having a separate section for
ia64 may be more appropriate, but either way seemed to work for the moment.
What would be the process for getting this added to the appropriate files?
