Rename the linker emulation name for powerpc and powerc64. This is needed that
we can also use the upstream binutils linker where we have to have a unique
name for the FreeBSD emulation.

Fix typo: s/LIBSERACHPATH/LIBSEARCHPATH/g

MAJOR cleanup of the Bmake framework.
This includes removing all vestiges of the old not-really supported
ability to build cross tools targeting non-FreeBSD systems, such as
m68k Lynx and NetBSD. Move as much duplicated code from platform
Makefiles into the shared Makefiles. Add a simple mechanism for
specifying ELF 'ldscripts'. Also share as many .h files as possible
(now a single bfd.h vs. one per platform).

Updated Bmake framework for Binutils 2.15.

Properly quote the lib path.

Stage 3 of dynamic root support, con't.
'ld' should also search /lib for dynamic libraries.

The PowerPC-specfic scripttempl file was depreciated in favor of the generic
ELF one.

Update to Binutils 2.12.0 and stick to the native emulation for now.
This lets us get on the with the task at hand -- porting FreeBSD.
We can get fancy later on.

Make it easier to change the native emulation.

Tested on: alpha, i386, sparc64

Set the SCRIPTDIR to be rooted at TOOLS_PREFIX rather than DESTDIR.
(the two may be different (ie, build vs. runtime))
Allow ldscript's SEARCH_DIR do be rooted somewhere other than `/'.
(in this case at TOOLS_PREFIX)

These changes are most helpful during `make buildworld' so that the shared
libs built in the middle of `make buildworld' are used vs. the ones in
/usr/lib on the build machine.

You know the last revision will work better if the TARGET_TUPLE is set
conditionally....

Allow easier override of the configure tuple, in case you wanted to build
as "powerpc-obrien-freebsd" rahter than "powerpc-unknown-freebsd" for example.

Clean up the formatting.

`stringify.sed' has been replaced by `astring.sed' [on ANSI-C systems].

s/MACHINE_ARCH/TARGET_ARCH/g

The target machine is represented by TARGET_ARCH. MACHINE_ARCH always
represents the host machine. When TARGET_ARCH is not defined, it is
assumed to be equal to MACHINE_ARCH. This means that we're building a
native toolset by default. We're creating cross-compilation tools when
MACHINE_ARCH != TARGET_ARCH.

TARGET_ARCH is defined when building binutils as part of the bootstrap
build and is set to reflect the architecture we're currently cross-
building. With this change binutils is ready for cross-building.

Replace freebsdelf with freebsd in most places.

Requested by: obrien

Add support for additional architectures.
