with the -R option and store the path in the dynamic header when specified. 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. Obtained from: NetBSD (mostly, the breakup is my fault)

Implement support for LD_PRELOAD in the dynamic linker.

Changes from Paul Kranenburg which bring us into sync with his sources:

handling of errors through the standard err() and warn() more fixes for Geoff Rehmet's NULL pointer bug. fixes NULL pointer bugs when linking mono and nested X servers. supports a `-nostdlib' option. accept object files without a symbol table don't attempt dynamic linking when `-A' is given a few variable names have chaged (desc -> fd), and the formatting has changed which should make it much easier to track his sources. I tested 'make world' for /usr/src and X twice with these changes.

This is Paul K's latest set of ld changes. A commit was necessary at this

late stage due to the fact that link.h was copyright Sun Microsystems. This version of ld sync's us up with NetBSD's ld and supports compatablily with NetBSD's -[zZ] flags (which we had reversed). Compiling with this new ld will give you RRS warnings for libraries which do not contain .type infomation - these wsarnings are harmless and will go away as soon as you recompile your libraries (cd /usr/src; make libraries).

these are handled by /etc/rc and this was causing errors on a new install as these places do NOT exsist by default!
