tidy up the logic that works out which sub-directories to build.
The new directories with freebsdelf suffixes now have freebsd suffixes
after a repo move by Peter at the request of David O'Brien.
directory to /usr/cross/${MACHINE_ARCH}-freebsdelf/usr/lib so that
the cross tools behave the same way that the host versions do. When
building cross tools, Cygnus doesn't set the default library directory.
This doesn't suit FreeBSD IMHO.
Add WinNT emulation support too. You only get this if you've set
BINUTILSDISTDIR because the contrib/binutils repository doesn't
contain the required sources.

gas for i386 targeted to NT for those (like me) who have to do work
targeted to NT, but can't stand actually looking at it all day long.
I cross build apps on FreeBSD and just run them on NT later. Life is
better that way.
Allow for the case where the host architecture might also be listed
in CROSS_ARCH, so don't do things twice. This situation can arise if you
want NT support in binutils (CROSS_ARCH=i386 CROSS_FORMAT=winnt).
* Update build for gdbserver and gdbreplay to work under binutils
* Fix gdbserver to use PT_GETREGS etc to access registers, removing the
dependancy on the u-area.
* Make gdbserver work on the alpha.

Correct the target names for mips. We just use the generic targets
for mips elf, so the mipse[lb]-unknown-freebsd emulation types don't
exist.
name of the bfd target, not the gnu-standard target name. Corrected
to be elf32-{big,little}mips from mipse[bl]-unknown-freebsd.
DEFAULT_EMULATION was bogusly defined, causing ld to always fail (this
was masked by the TARGET bogosity). Define correctly as elf32bmip and
elf32lmip. Mips doesn't follow the same conventions as i386 and alpha
do in this area.
ld now appears to work correctly for the uncommitted mips changes to
egcs.
Unlike the unisex architecutres we've had so far, mips is bisexual.
These tools can produce either byte sex, and the compiler/make
determines the proper gender to use. Otherwise, we'd have to have had
mipsel and mipseb in all the places that we have just mips. And there
are other complications with doing that (binutils doesn't like to
build mips tools without both byte genders, it seems).
Introduced BINUTIL_ARCH so that other bisexual architectures can a
generic mechanism.
We cannot just define MACHINE_ARCH as mips because we need to
differentiate big and little endian types of binaries. Discussions on
freebsd-arch have hashed out this issue (and the parallel libc
issues). NetBSD is moving towards mipsel and mipseb for their two
flavors of mips ports (in time for 1.4, if this change hasn't already
been accomplished).
I've been building i386 worlds with this tree for a three months with
these files in place with no ill effects.

allow another host format, but to allow us to use the objformat trickery
for cross compilation.

Don't forget to clean ldemul-list.h.

xfer_umem() for attempts to read from user addresses, in particular
for attempts to read %fs and %gs from the pcb for `info reg'.
gas for each target format. So for m68k targets that means several
gases. I wanted a m68k gas for VxWorks which uses aout in sun3 big

supplied by DEC and intended by them for cross compilation on Alpha
under OSF/1. And it actually works!

be defined (in /etc/make.conf, say) and set to the additional architectures
that need to be compiled in. So on alpha I set CROSS_TOOLS = i386.
On i386 you can't build alpha due to lack of 64-bit support on 32-bit
architectures, but that's a GNU problem.
This change relies on makefiles in the binutils sub-directories having
the extension defined in the CROSS_TOOLS, instead of those makefiles
being selected based on the host architecture.
worked because .ORDER prevented problems from concurrent generation
of multiple parsers (and their headers), and there were no missing
dependencies because the generated headers were not actually used.

Fixed stale near-copy of contrib/libreadline/doc/hsuser.texinfo. Patch
it at build ntime, and only keep the patch for it here.
Don't keep a copy of contrib/gdb/gdb/doc/all-cfg.texi here. Link to it

be worth much effort. Install all i386 binutils programs in
"/usr/libexec/elf". Disable a.out support in libbfd. It's too
dangerous to leave it in. Some of the utilities think they can
handle a.out, but they generate bad object files.
the binutils headers for (machine)-unknown-freebsdelf.
Also copy the bfd.h header to an architecture specific directory
because there are two fundamental lines that differ (32-bit vs 64-bit)
between i386 and alpha.
The config.h for libbinutils generates the same on alpha as i386,
so I didn't change that (though I was tempted!).
support building it for variant architectures. It was already
becoming clear that the former structure was too rigid and didn't
scale well.
The usual sort of makefile magic arranges to .include an architecture
specific makefile "Makefile.${MACHINE_ARCH}" in each directory
where it exists. Also, sources will be found in each subdirectory
"${MACHINE_ARCH}" that exists. This is all taken care of automatically
by the top level "Makefile.inc0".
This all seems to work right for the i386 now. I have also converted
those alpha pieces already present to the new schema as best I
could.
Also: change the BINDIR on the i386 to /usr/libexec/elf for "ar"
and "ranlib". They are not object format independent enough to
put into /usr/bin.
