Add a -Bforcedynamic option which generates a dynamic object even
if no shared libraries were given in the link.
Make RRS in text section warnings conditional on "-assert pure-text"
so that I can link non-PIC kernel modules without tons of link
errors. Changes to bsd.lib.mk to follow.
Fix a couple of bugs exposed by the fact that the kernel is not
linked at zero.

This version of ld sync's us up with NetBSD's ld and supports compatablily

new ld will give you RRS warnings for libraries which do not contain .type
infomation - these wsarnings are harmless and will go away as soon as you
recompile your libraries (cd /usr/src; make libraries).

As Paul told me, it is only informational, nothing more.
