Patch from Ian Lance Taylor <ian@airs.com>:

I noticed that in the 4.0.0-beta4a tar file, the file
        c/src/lib/libbsp/i386/pc386/startup/linkcmds
    was changed so that it no longer handles the .gnu.linkonce.r*
    sections.  The appended patch was applied to the file.  I'm not sure
    why.  I think this patch should probably be backed out, although it's
    not critical for the release.
