For the most part.

Nope the Compaq compiler spits out AXP ASM code.  I remove the Linux gas
and GNU ld from the Compaq compiler installation and replace with a link
to the FreeBSD native ones.  Because there are no syscalls in any of the
.a's & .o's included with the Compaq compiler, I can get away with doing
this.
