[M3devel] FreeBSD4 update on releng branch failed

[Jay K]

I can build current release from LINUXLIBC6 release 5.4.0 now.

Some of the fixes are applicable to PPC_LINUX.

I can test it against an older release.

 

I could probably easily make it work back to older versions and more targets.

 I had removed some of the workarounds, but they were fairly clean.

 Stuff like not using -m32 on older cm3cg, etc.

 

You cannot build current m3core/libm3 with old cm3 or old cm3cg.

I used "upgrade.py" which foists current config files on older compiler, and, you know, doesn't build m3core/libm3 until after it has a current compiler.

Maybe nice to "fix".
I'll try to get to it.
