Subject: alpha: fix objstrip.c compilation warnings
From: Meelis Roos <mroos@xxxxxxxx>

In current 2.6.23-rc1+git, make bootimage gives the following warnings while
compiling objstrip.c.  The patch below fixes these warnings by casting strncmp
argument to char * - it does not seem feasible to change its type in struct
elfhdr.
