  Added files:
    include              objformat.h 
    lib/libc/gen         getobjformat.3 getobjformat.c 
  Log:
  Add a new library function getobjformat().  It checks all the
  standard places ("/etc/objformat", ${OBJFORMAT}, argv) for an
  indication of the user's preferred object file format.  This
  consolidates some code that was starting to be duplicated in more
  and more places.
  
  Use the new function in ldconfig.
  
  Note: I don't think that gcc should use getobjformat(), even though
  it could.  The compiler should limit itself to functions that are
  widespread, to ease porting and cross-compilation.
