  Modified files:
    sys/i386/i386        bioscall.s locore.s 
  Log:
  Make the kernel actually compile and link under a.out, using
  gcc -aout -mno-underscores.  The bioscall.s tweak is not an a.out
  requirement really, but to work around the bugs in the antique version of
  gas that used for a.out.  Makefile hacks are all that is needed to
  get an a.out kernel.  There is no telling if it will work though.
  This is little more than an academic curiosity anyway since all it is
  good for is situations where the boot code is hard wired, eg: rom
  bootstraps (such as the gnat box).
