magic number byte ordering for FreeBSD. This makes "file" describe
our object files as "FreeBSD/i386 object" instead of as NetBSD
object files. In case this seems drastic and risky, Bruce points
out that the "ld -r -x" step that is done on every object file when
building libraries fixes the byte ordering in the same way. I have
been running with this patch for over a month and have seen no
problems.
With -O3, egcs generates such forward references.

This includes changes to other architectures mostly for completeness,
I don't expect cross-assemblink would work but I could be wrong.
