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...
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
failure (required by POSIX).
- Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
- Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
- Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
was an error.
- Check for failure where no checks were present.

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.
at install time. This will allow `install -C' to avoid replacing the
installed copy if the new copy is the same. `install -C' would actually
work right if `strip' is already installed, but the Makefile doesn't
know that and has to work for plain `install'.
Stripping should be done by default at link time, but complications
would still be required for installing `strip' in case the default is
overridden.
