939bc65715 ld-elf.so.1 assumed a few too many things about the ordering of sections
produced by ld(8) (ie: that _DYNAMIC immediately follows the _GOT).
The new binutils import changed that, and the intial GOT relocation
broke.  Use a custom linker script to provide a real end-of-GOT symbol.

Update ld.so to deal with the new (faster) PLT format that gcc-3.1 and
binutils can produce.

This is probably incomplete, but appears to be working again.

(And a fix to a silly mistake that I made by:  gallatin)

d5b537d01a Eliminate all machine-dependent code from the main source body and
the Makefile, and move it down into the architecture-specific
subdirectories.

Eliminate an asm() statement for the i386.

Make the dynamic linker work if it is built as an executable instead
of as a shared library.  See i386/Makefile.inc to find out how to
do it.  Note, this change is not enabled and it might never be
enabled.  But it might be useful in the future.  Building the
dynamic linker as an executable should make it start up faster,
because it won't have any relocations.  But in practice I suspect
the difference is negligible.
