Paflof update

[Stefan Reinauer]

Hi,

some updates on paflof I made recently:
* use c style comments to not break non gcc compilers (compile 
  with -ansi -pedantic)
* implement unaligned-w@, unaligned-w!, unaligned-l@, unaligned-l!
* implement 2constant
* fix typo in dict.source 
* use conf.pl to create types.h according to compiler capabilities
  (cross compiling possible) (cleaner version then last patch)
* move unix host code from prim.code to unix.code

Best regards,
  Stefan Reinauer

how soon do you think it will be before we can try this under linuxbios?

the only missing words that might be critical for operation are 
key?, alloc-mem, free-mem. We should be able to use the values
from the LinuxBIOS table to initialize memory allocation. Can we
assume memory being one linear chunk?
A nice thing to have is package/properties support because that would
allow us to write initialization drivers as packages, using the OO 
capabilities of Open Firmware instead of having one linear bunch of code
that is executed for initialization.
I started writing an fcode evaluator in Forth. The skeleton is working, 
but some words for flow control are missing. This will allow to execute
FCode binaries instead of forth source code with paflof.
