handling clean and functional as 5.x evolves. This allows some of the
nasty bandaids in the 5.x codepaths to be unwound.
Encapsulate 4.x signal handling under COMPAT_FREEBSD4 (there is an
anti-foot-shooting measure in place, 5.x folks need this for a while) and
finish encapsulating the older stuff under COMPAT_43. Since the ancient
stuff is required on alpha (longjmp(3) passes a 'struct osigcontext *'
to the current sigreturn(2), instead of the 'ucontext_t *' that sigreturn
is supposed to take), add a compile time check to prevent foot shooting
there too. Add uniform COMPAT_43 stubs for ia64/sparc64/powerpc.
Tested on: i386, alpha, ia64. Compiled on sparc64 (a few days ago).

to a new architecture. This is the base of the sparc64 port, but contains
limited machine dependent code, and can be used a base for ports. Included
are:
- standard machine dependent headers, tweaked for a 64 bit, big endian
architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent
structures
- a machine independent atomic.h, which can be used until a port has
support for interrupts and the operations really need to be atomic
- stub versions of all the machine dependent functions, which panic
when called and print out the name of the function that needs to
be implemented. functions which are normally in assembly files are
not included, but this should reduce the number of different undefined
references on the first few compiles from hundreds to 5 or 6
Given minimal startup code and console support it should be trivial to
make this compile and run the first few sysinits on almost any architecture.
