RFC: i8259.c cleanup

While y'all are mucking around in there, you might have a chance to
fix my pet peeve: if you have an OpenPIC, you don't necessarily have
an i8259 also.  Gemini doesn't have an i8259, but it either has to
ifdef out the i8259 code or include the i8259.o object.

The whole i8259/OpenPIC interface could use some redesign, actually.
But it works, hey...
