[patch] VxWorks x86 shared library support.

The attached patch implements support for x86 VxWorks shared libraries.

VxWorks shared libraries are somewhat different to sysv shared libraries, so I 
needed to make a couple of changes to common code:
- The __GOTT_BASE__ and __GOTT_INDEX__ symbols are supplied by the OS loader, 
so we need to allow undefined references to these symbols.
- The OS loader requires both the normal dynamic relocations and a copy of the 
original static relocations for the PLT.

Both these changes will also be used by other (not yet submitted) VxWorks 
targets.

To actually generate working executables an additional option to create 
dynamic sections in executables is needed. This will follow shortly.

Tested on i586-wrs-vxworks and i686-pc-linux-gnu.
Ok?
