page stated, thus BSD ar(1) option -q, which was implemented based on
the GNU ar manual page, turns out to be incompatible with GNU ar -q.
This change will make BSD ar(1) -q a *REAL* GNU ar -q:
1. It will update symbol table. (same as unfixed version)
2. It will NOT compare new members spcified in the command line args
with existing members, instead, append them directly.

- Fix a malloc buffer overrun: Use a while loop to check whether
the string buffer is big enough after resizing, since doubling
once might not be enough when a very long member name or symbol
name is provided.
- Fix typo.

source upgrades by falling back to GNU ar(1) as necessary. Option
WITH_BSDAR is gone. Option _WITH_GNUAR to aid in upgrades is *not*
supposed to be set by the user.
Stop bootstrapping BSD ar(1) on the next __FreeBSD_version bump, as
there are no known bugs in it. Bump __FreeBSD_version to anticipate
this and to flag the switch to BSD ar(1), should it be needed for
something.

Do not mmap 0-size objects and do not try to extract symbol from
0-size objects, but do treat 0-size objects as qualified objects and
accept them as an archive member. (A member with only the header part)
Note that GNU binutils ar on FreeBSD ignores 0-size objects, but on
Linux it accepts them. [1] But, since this is a rare usage, we can
safely ignore the compatibility issue.

Thanks to gabor@ for building ports for it.
Thanks to erwin@ and kris@ for scheduling the ports build test on pointyhat.
And thanks to many others for their feedback.

1) FreeBSD id tags should follow vendor tags.
2) Vendor tags should not be compiled (though copyrights probably should).
3) There should be no blank line between including cdefs and __FBSDIF.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;
.\" $Id$

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

Move our old a.out utils to /usr/libexec/aout.
Enable binutils and put the utils in /usr/libexec/elf
Enable objformat, a little helper program that calls the right
utils based on /etc/objformat and $OBJFORMAT.
This will enable the ELF generating tools.
Remember that this is only step one, the system is still compiled
and run in a.out format ONLY.
Problem left to solve: The BSD manpages wins over the GNU equivalents
as the are installed last. We need to distinguish between the manpages
somehow...
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.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
