HP-UX shared lib detection (1.5.24)

[Roger While]

Some more info -
Using different "file" versions

$ file /home/proghome/wgay/local/lib/libdb-4.5.sl
/home/proghome/wgay/local/lib/libdb-4.5.sl: ELF 64-bit MSB shared object, 
PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64) version 1, not stripped

$ /usr/bin/file /home/proghome/wgay/local/lib/libdb-4.5.sl
/home/proghome/wgay/local/lib/libdb-4.5.sl:     ELF-64 shared object file - 
PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

Note that in _both_ cases, there is a space after "PA-RISC".

Trying a 32-bit shared library gives these results:

$ file /usr/lib/liby.2
/usr/lib/liby.2: PA-RISC1.0 shared library - not stripped

$ /usr/bin/file /usr/lib/pa2.0/libF90.1
/usr/lib/pa2.0/libF90.1:        PA-RISC2.0 shared library -not stripped

$ /home/proghome/wgay/local/bin/file /usr/lib/pa2.0/libF90.1
/usr/lib/pa2.0/libF90.1: PA-RISC2.0 shared library - not stripped

In all the 32-bit versions of shared libraries, it seems that
the blank is absent between PA-RISC and the x.x.
