* Configure (1.294), Makefile.org (1.142): For systems where gcc is
used and where we don't know if GNU ld is used or not, let's ask
collect2 which ld it uses and choose to use the target
do-gnu_shared if GNU ld is used.
This solves the reported problems on Solaris systems where GNU cc
is used but GNU ld isn't, and probably on other systems with
similar setups.

* Makefile.org (1.135): A method to create shared libraries on AIX,
and according to "Howard Chu" <hyc@highlandsun.com>, it may be
general enough to work on any Unixly system.

* Makefile.org (1.134): Linux shared libraries can be linked with
debug symbols. Tru64 shared libraries can be linked with static
libraries.

* Makefile.org (1.118): Pass ${PERL} down to the Makefile in
sub-directory "test" in "make tests"

* Makefile.org (1.117): Use $(PERL) in place of hard-coded perl

* Makefile.org (1.115): Some platforms (namely HP-UX) require the
'x' bit set for shared libraries. For performance reasons, it is
also recommended to make the (mmap'ed) shared library 'read-only'.
-> New permissions for installed shared libraries = 555
This doesn't hurt anybody, provided the installation is performed
with 'cp -f' :-)

* Makefile.org (1.106): When building shared libraries on HP-UX
10.20 and HP-UX 11.00 (32bit), ld warns that -Fl "may not be
supported in future releases". We know that, and are doing things
in HP-UX 11 (64bit), so turn off that warning with
+vnocompatwarnings.

* Configure (1.232): FreeBSD-elf can do threads. However, there
seems to be confusion if you should defined _THREAD_SAFE (I found
that in an include file, and that's what everybody tells me) or
_THREADSAFE (that's what the gcc manual says in the
FreeBSD-specific section), so I defined both, just to be safe.
field here, which is left empty).
Various configurations are *only* in the 0.9.6 branch at the moment:
OpenUNIX
OpenUNIX-8-gcc-shared
OpenUNIX-8-shared
Either Configure or CHANGES must be changed to rectify the situation.
