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

Configuration changes to support FreeBSD. The linker only works for
ELF, not a.out. But all the other tools support both. I'm not so
sure about the assembler -- it might need more work.

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