9abb9299ce Changed type of ni_dirp in struct namei' from caddr_t to const char *'
so that the compiler can see that it is OK to use const strings in
NDINIT().  Some emulators want to use paths of the form "/compat/foo".
Removed the casts that hid the non-problem.  Didn't fix the missing
consts in syscalls.master that hid the non-problem.

5668a5f30b Change alternate space base name from /emul/ibcs2 to /compat/ibcs2,
in line with linux alt space of /compat/linux.
This was pointed out by Stefan Esser.

In cheching alt space for libraries in imgact_coff.c, use const
ibcs2_emul_path instead of its own local string.  Also do a proper
malloc of temp name according to MAXPATHLEN.

20f13c7a7e Remove old files no longer needed.
Add new files created for emulator.
Modify NetBSD import to work with FreeBSD and add new features and
code.  The complete emulator is essentially a combination of work/code
implemented by Sean Eric Fagan, Soren Schmidt, Scott Bartram, and myself,
Steven Wallace.

Features of this new emulator system include:

 o  "clean" code, including strict prototyping.
 o  Auto-generation of ibcs2 system calls, xenix system calls, isc system
calls.  Generation includes system tables, structure definitions,
and prototyping of function calls.
 o  ibcs2 emulator does not rely on any COMPAT_43 system calls.
 o  embedded socksys support
 o  ibcs2 msgsys, semsys, shmsys calls supported if supported in kernel
 o  alternate /emul/ibcs2 namespace searched first for files in ibcs2
system.  Usefull to keep sysv libraries, binaries in /emul/ibcs2.
 o  many other finer details and functions fixed or implemented.

e2b7ea019e Import of original NetBSD's ibcs2 emulator sources by Scott Bartram,
which is used as a basis for a more complete and cleaner ibcs2 emulator.
(snapshot about May 1995 with a few files from September 1995)

Some files and code from old emulator still remains.
New files, features, and changes have been implemented by myself,
which will be shown in following commits.
