Copy head to stable/9 as part of 9.0-RELEASE release cycle.

Approved by: re (implicit)

Merge binutils 2.17.50 to head. This brings a number of improvements to
x86 CPU support, better support for powerpc64, some new directives, and
many other things. Bump __FreeBSD_version, and add a note to UPDATING.

Thanks to the many people that have helped to test this.

Update HEAD with the stock binutils_2_15_20040523 file.

Update HEAD with the stock files.

While it is true we moved over to our own elf*-<arch>-fbsd files as the
last comment said; these files didn't deal with ELF branding, but that the
default ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER is wrong for us (and most everyone else!).

We now have our own FBSD emulation and the ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER is
handled thru the new emulation by 'ld'.

Remove our custom ELF branding -- we have moved to our own ELF vectors
that DTRT.

Merge rev 1.8 ("ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER") into Binutils 2.13_20021110 snap.

Merge rev 1.8 ("ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER") into Binutils 2.12_20020410 snap.

Merge rev 1.8 (only define "ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER" if it isn't defined
elsewhere) into Binutils 2.12_20020221_snap.

Merge rev 1.8 (only define "ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER" if it isn't defined
elsewhere.) into Binutils 2.12.0_snap.

Merge rev 1.8 (only define "ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER" if it isn't defined
elsewhere.) into Binutils 2.11.2.

Merge rev 1.8 (only define "ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER" if it isn't defined
elsewhere.) into Binutils 2.11[.0].

Only define "ELF_DYNAMIC_INTERPRETER" if it isn't defined elsewhere.

FreeBSD does not adhear to the Intel386 System V ABI for the dynamic
[linker] interpreter, and thus must override this value.

Merge in rev 1.4 changes (Make the default dynamic linker pathname correct
for FreeBSD.)

Rev 1.3 which resolved conflicts in the 2.9.1 import, used a comment from
2.8.1 rather than the new one in 2.9.1. This commit fixes that, is purely
cosmetic, and reduces the diff of our hacks to 2.9.1.

Slight cleaner code that may be more palatable to the Binutils maintainers.

Make the default dynamic linker pathname correct for FreeBSD.

I had resisted this for a while because I didn't want to take these
file off the vendor branch. But it turns out they were already off
the vendor branch anyway.

Resolve conflicts from import of binutils-2.9.1.

Submitted by: Doug Rabson <dfr>

Fix a bug which incorrectly caused files to be labeled as having
text relocations in certain situations.

This commit was generated by cvs2svn to compensate for changes in r33965,
which included commits to RCS files with non-trunk default branches.

Initial import of GNU binutils version 2.8.1. Believe it or not,
this is heavily stripped down.
