For more archs, ld.so itself only needs/uses the arch's "just add load offset" 'relative' relocation. Take advantage of that to simplify ld.so's self-reloc code: * give the exceptional archs (hppa and mips64) copies of the current boot.c as boot_md.c * teach the Makefile to use boot_md.c when present * reduce boot.c down to the minimum necessary to handle just relative reloc * teach the Makefile to fail if the built ld.so has other types of relocs

Make sure the syscall table entries are aligned on a 4-byte boundary. Required for strict-alignment architectures and a good idea on others. same as kettenis commit to libc

crt0 uses a helper function in a MD src/libexec/ld.so .h file (rather than reproducing the relevant defines and code in a different place) to perform minor relocations. If things go very wrong, it would call _dl_exit() -- a locally defined crt0 function which is syscall exit(2). We don't need to call exit(2) for this obscure case which doesn't happen and provides no debugging information. An 'abort' is going to provide better information. So let's change the function name to _dso_abort() and make it a single illegal instruction. ok guenther

For strange reasons which made sense at the time, the text segment was placed head of the btext (boot.text) segment. (the boot.text segment is "unmapped" after initization, as a self-protection mechanism). this meant the LOAD's virtual addresses were not in sequence, which clearly isn't what we intended.
