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.

library with a shared object dependency that contained alias symbols,
the linker incorrectly counted the number of symbols that would be
written, resulting in a fatal internal error. Since our libc now
contains some alias symbols (in "net/res_stubs.c"), this was
sufficient to tickle the bug: "ld -Bshareable foo.so -lc". To
fix it, I moved the accounting of alias symbols to a later point
in the processing, where it is possible to count only those symbols
that will actually be written to the output file.
This fix is well-confined to affect alias symbols only. I have
tested it with a full "make world". I am going to merge it into
-2.2 after a few more days of living with it in -current.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Consider the following code:
case 'O':
output_filename = malloc(strlen(arg)+4);
strcpy(output_filename, arg);
strcat(output_filename, ".tmp");
real_output_filename = arg;
return;
The idea here is to malloc() a buffer big enough to hold the name of
a supplied file name, plus ".tmp". So we malloc() 'size of filename'
bytes plus 4, right? Wrong! ".tmp" is _FIVE_ bytes long! There's a
traling '\0' which strcat() gleefully tacks on _outside_ the bounds
of the buffer. Result: program corrupts own memory. Program SEGVs at
seemingly random times. Bill not like random SEGVs. Bill smash.
Know how I found this? I've been trying to bootstrap -current on my
2.1.0-RELEASE machine at work and I couldn't seem to get libc.a built
because the linker would intermittently blow chunks while executing
things like 'ld -O foo.o -X -r foo.o'. Since this is an initial
bootstrap version of ld, it was linked against the 2.1.0 libc, who's
malloc() behaves differently than that in -current.
Presumeably ld -O doesn't blow up in -current, otherwise someone would
have spotted this already. I don't know if this is a bug or a feature.
Anyway. I'm changing the strlen(arg)+4 to strlen(arg)+5. Bah.
-O filename
Specifies the name of the output file. The file is created as
filename.tmp and when output is complete renamed to filename.
This allows us to:
ld -O ${.TARGET} -x -r ${.TARGET}
"-X" must survive, because of references from relocations, don't
qualify the symbol name with the name of the input file. This
saves some string space. It makes libc_pic.a about 2.4% smaller.

This version of ld sync's us up with NetBSD's ld and supports compatablily
with NetBSD's -[zZ] flags (which we had reversed). Compiling with this
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).
On any other system -z means "standard" ZMAGIC format and is the
default. Therefore I've made -z be standard ZMAGIC and -Z be ZMAGIC
stored in the new a_midmag format.
The "standard" ZMAGIC format is now the default as well.

to output the same QMAGIC format as BSDI does. This is triggered by
a new '-q' flag ('-Xlinker -q' in gcc). The default can be changed from
ZMAGIC to QMAGIC by defining DEFAULT_MAGIC=QMAGIC when building ld.
ld won't generate output if there are two .o files with the same
name. It thinks they are multiply defined external references. This
patch explictly allows multiple /file names/ with the same value.
This can happen if you do a two stage link or if you link in file
names that are identical to files in libc.
Otherwise ld.c exits with a status=1 and non error message. Rich
