HPUX function address.

The situations are similar but there are slight implementation differences
between linux and hpux.  The default on linux is to use lazy linking.
Initially, all function descriptors point to a small bit of code in the
global offset table which jumps to a routine in the dynamic loader to
resolve the address of the function and build the function descriptor.
After the first call to a function, the function descriptor will be setup
as indicated by Jeff.
