John Polstra 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.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
