UID16

Although the CONFIG_UID16 is not set for ia64, the emulation layer
probably wants it set, as it is set to yes in arch/i386/config.in.  The
proposal is thus to force it on in in ia64's ia32 emulation layer.  This
patch was already accepted for the x86_64 emulation layer. See the thread
at: http://www.x86-64.org/lists/discuss/msg04027.html

thanks,

-Jason
