Add support for the GCC binary integer constants extension.
This is required to build the i965 backend with newer versions of mesa. Original patch from Joerg Wunsch in GCC Bug 23479, under the GPLv2; also taken from there in OpenBSD. Obtained from: gcc 4.3 (rev. 125346; GPLv2) MFC after: 5 days

+Integer constants can be written as binary constants, consisting of a
+sequence of @samp{0} and @samp{1} digits, prefixed by @samp{0b} or
+@samp{0B}. This is particularly useful in environments that operate a
+lot on the bit-level (like microcontrollers).
+
+The following statements are identical:
+
+@smallexample
+i = 42;
+i = 0x2a;
+i = 052;
+i = 0b101010;
+@end smallexample
+
+The type of these constants follows the same rules as for octal or
+hexadecimal integer constants, so suffixes like @samp{L} or @samp{UL}
+can be applied.
