fea15783d0 BINDIR is now specified in a single place. There are no cross-architecture
issues with this utility.

98ad0dae72 Give up on a.out support in binutils. It has too many problems to
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.

ab5ad3a4b5 Restructure the binutils hierarchy somewhat in order to better
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.

2e280533a1 Add bmakefiles for building binutils from the contrib tree.
This finishes up the binutils import.  But I am leaving it disabled
in "src/gnu/usr.bin/Makefile" for now.  It is not used by anything
yet, so I'll take this opportunity to run one more round of tests
before enabling it.
