It seems -v only worked for a.out. Remove it, not even keeping the current
nop for compat. Also remove more mentions of a.out format from the man
page.

Specifically, build a 32-bit /usr/bin/ldd32 on amd64 which handles 32-bit
objects. Since it is a 32-bit binary, it can fork a child process which
can dlopen() a 32-bit shared library. The current 32-bit support in ldd
can't do this because it does the dlopen() from a 64-bit process. In order
to preserve an intuitive interface for users, the ldd binary automatically
execs /usr/bin/ldd32 for 32-bit objects. The end result is that ldd on
amd64 now transparently handles 32-bit shared libraries in addition to
32-bit binaries.

Added support in ldd(1) for the LD_32_xxx environment variables if
the architecture of the machine is >32 bits. If we ever go to 128
bit architectures this excercise will have to be repeated but thanks
to earlier commits today it will be relative simple.

warning handling and allows for link-time warnings with a modified
version of gas.
Note: Not all of the newer bits were updated such as some of the non-x86
machine-dependant code is relevant to FreeBSD right now.
Obtained from: NetBSD
late stage due to the fact that link.h was copyright Sun Microsystems.
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).
