freebsd update

[Kip Macy]

I just got the port working with the new unified domain builder. I'll
try to get a tarball up with build instructions tomorrow.

There is now one generic domain builder that is used by {Net,Free}BSD
and linux.

I will take a look and see if it can handle a.out ...

No - it only works for ELF. FreeBSD went to ELF in 3.0.

It's still possible to select other domain builders, so your
a.out Plan9 builder should still work.

However, at some point it might be worth writing something that
wraps the Plan9 a.out image as an ELF binary, and then switch
over to the generic builder. It'll be easy to keep things in sync
when the unstable tree forks (e.g. for SMP guests).

I actually tried that first but there were too many differences at the 
time between how to lay out memory in Plan 9 and the other OSes, But I may 
try again.

The current domain builder is much more minimal in its mappings. It
shouldn't be that hard to go from what they provide you with now.
