configurable fallback search paths, as well as new crt interface version.
Also:
- even faster getenv(), get all environment variable settings in a single
pass.
- ldd printf-like format specifications
- minor code cleanups, one vsprintf -> vsnprintf (harmless)
The library search sequence is a little more complete now. Before,
it'd search $LD_LIBRARY_PATH (by opendir/readdir/closedir), then read
the hints file, then read /usr/lib (again by scanning thr directory). It
would then fail if there was no "found" library.
Now, it does LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the hints file the same, but then uses
a longer fallback path. The -R path is fetched from the executable if
specified at build time, the ldconfig path is appended, and /usr/lib is
appended to that. Duplicates are suppressed. This means that simply
placing a new library in /usr/local/lib will work (the same as it did in
/usr/lib) without needing ldconfig -m. It will find it quicker if the
ldconfig is run though.
Similar changes have been made to the NetBSD ld.so, but ours is rather
different now due to John Polstra's speedups and fixes from a while back.
The ldd printf-like format support came direct from NetBSD.

ldconfig path (from NetBSD). I added code to make sure there were no
duplicates in the path when multiple ldconfig -m's were used.

The $LD_RUN_PATH environment variable is not checked yet.
While here, split up the code a bit more to enable more selective replacing
of GPL'ed components that are linked with ld.so with others.

search 'pattern' in whole file 'file', from top to bottom. This is
not necessary; if grep found 'pattern' it can stop further searching
in file 'file'.
Example:
$ time ./grep-old -q Adam /usr/share/dict/*
1.93 real 1.05 user 0.85 sys
$ time ./grep-new -q Adam /usr/share/dict/*
0.14 real 0.06 user 0.06 sys
(the old cc has been tagged with "gcc_2_6_3_final" so we have a reference
point in case of unforseen disasters...)
This has the objc backend active, and I think I've managed to get the
f77 f2c support through in one piece, but I don't know fortran to test it.
A 'make world' change and libobjc commit will follow.
If you normally do 'make -DNOCLEAN world', do not do so this time, I know
it can fail with groff.
This version of gcc makes a **LOT** more warnings on our kernel.

(Immutable targets can't be renamed without opening a window when
neither the source nor the target is immutable. Perhaps there
should be a rename_immutable syscall to do this if unsetting the
immutable flags would work.)
