files[0], and reloc_outpu will be needed for (upcoming in the next
patch) "compute default outfile name" refactored into libtcc function.
Also, since for symmetry and from libification point of view, it makes
some sense to also put all information about what was given as input to
compilation into TCCState, let's not only put files[0], but all
files and all libraries given explicitely by user.
One point: I've used bitfield for reloc_output & trimmed down
output_type to 8 bits so that TCCState stays the same in size, and also
access to output_type is (hopefully) is not slower.
By the way -- as of today, sizeof(TCCState) on i686-pc-linux-gnu is 2884
bytes...

I think i have managed to solve the problem and produce
almost valid elf files on FreeBSD. The two patches attached
address a few problems (trying to explain to the
best of my knowledge; i am not very familiar with ELF and
the FreeBSD ELF conventions):
1. ELF file format
tcc produces an ELF executable which is good for linux but
not for FreeBSD. It misses the PHDR section which is almost
mandatory for shared executables, puts in the .dynsym section
some relocation info that FreeBSD expects to be in .got,
and expect the relocation sections to be contiguous.
patch-tccelf.c tries to address the above problem using
conditional sections (so hopefully can be imported upstream)
and also adds the ability to override the name of the dynamic
loader through an environment variable (this is important to
debug tcc).
2. predefined macros
patch-libtcc.c adds/fixes some predefined macros when compiling
on FreeBSD: these are __FreeBSD__ and the usual set of
__i386__ and __unix__ variants.
It also sets __INTEL_COMPILER so we can grab the __aligned
macro from cdefs.h , otherwise many programs would fail
The resulting elf file is still not 100% correct -- if you strip it,
the program will not run (presumably there is some dangling reference).
Other than that, program do seem to run correctly.
It would be nice to integrate these patches in the main repository.
The FreeBSD specific code is in #ifdef so it should not harm
linux users

(Because GNU's alloca.h unconditionally #undef's alloca)
Also, remove gcc specific sections in headers. and
instead change tests such that gcc does not use them.
