603 support (implemented but untested)

The MOL developer tree now contains 603 support. This
code is however still completely untested. Instructions
for those who have 603 processors and would like to test it:

Rsync the developer tree:

        rsync -vcaz zorn.theophys.kth.se::mol mol-rsync

Compile, install and start mol.

Old, MOL-patched kernels with 603 support should be avoided
(the old kernel patch should not interfere with the new
version but there is the extra overhead...).

If MOL crashes (I hope not, but the code is *untested*),
try the following things:

        startmol --loadonly
        startmol -d (starts the debugger)

If the debugger starts, press "Cmd-S" to see if
single-stepping works.

Report success or failure to me (please specify
<samuel@theophys.kth.se> as CC - my main mail server
seems to be down at the moment).
