Description
The call to getisax() assumes only 1 word will be returned.  Fix that and make use of additional
information as appropriate.
Comments
The execution of any debug VM with this fix will test for the additional word returned by getisax() with an assertion. The code to check for the additional architecture features will only have an affect on an unreleased version of Solaris (where the return from getisax() has been changed to return two words) and on unreleased sparc hardware (T7 hardware).

Change code to expect 2 words returned by getisax() and use the contents of the second word to identify architectural features.
