  Modified files:
    sys/kern             link_aout.c 
  Log:
  Updates for KLD backends.
   - symbol_values checks that the symbol is indeed belonging to the
     correct symbol and string table pairs before looking up. (since there
     could be many pairs, and KLD/DDB need to find out).
   - different ops for files versus preload modules - the unload mechanism
     is different.  (a preloaded module has to be deleted on unload since
     the in-core image is tainted by relocation and variables used)
   - Do not build an a.out kernel module if we're running on an elf
     kernel. :-)  Note that it should theoretically be possible to
     mix a.out and elf KLD modules providing -mno-underscores was used
     to compile it, or some other symbol conversion takes place.
   - Support preload modules (even though /boot/loader doesn't yet)
   - Search the module path when loading files.
