following improvements:
- Arch/OS/platform-specific files are now included/excluded via the
preprocessor, rather than via the build system. This is more consistent
(we use the pre-processor for small arch/OS/platform-specific chunks
within files) and makes the build system much simpler, as the sources for
all programs are the same on all platforms.
- Vast amounts of cut+paste Makefile.am code has been factored out. If a
new platform is implemented, you need to add 11 extra Makefile.am lines.
Previously it was over 100 lines.
- Vex has been autotoolised. Dependency checking now works in Vex (no more
incomplete builds). Parallel builds now also work. --with-vex no longer
works; it's little use and a pain to support. VEX/Makefile is still in
the Vex repository and gets overwritten at configure-time; it should
probably be renamed Makefile-gcc to avoid possible problems, such as
accidentally committing a generated Makefile. There's a bunch of hacky
copying to deal with the fact that autotools don't handle same-named files
in different directories. Julian plans to rename the files to avoid this
problem.
- Various small Makefile.am things have been made more standard automake
style, eg. the use of pkginclude/pkglib prefixes instead of rolling our
own.
- The existing five top-level Makefile.am include files have been
consolidated into three.
- Most Makefile.am files now are structured more clearly, with comment
headers separating sections, declarations relating to the same things next
to each other, better spacing and layout, etc.
- Removed the unused exp-ptrcheck/tests/x86 directory.
- Renamed some XML files.
- Factored out some duplicated dSYM handling code.
- Split auxprogs/ into auxprogs/ and mpi/, which allowed the resulting
Makefile.am files to be much more standard.
- Cleaned up m_coredump by merging a bunch of files that had been
overzealously separated.
The net result is 630 fewer lines of Makefile.am code, or 897 if you exclude
the added Makefile.vex.am, or 997 once the hacky file copying for Vex is
removed. And the build system is much simpler.

DARWIN branch. A big ugly DARWIN/trunk sync commit, mostly to do with
changing the representation of SysRes and vki_sigset_t. Functionality of
the trunk shouldn't be changed by it.

they certainly aren't) to syswrap-linux.c. Fixes#175044.

- Factor out 'execv' from 'system' and expose it to tools.

causes child processes after fork to fall completely silent, which can
make the output a lot less confusing. In addition it is pretty much
essential in XML output mode, so as to avoid mixing up any child XML
output with the parent's.

interface:
r6805: Modify two thread-notification events in the core-tool
interface. This removes track_post_thread_create and
track_post_thread_join. The core can only see low level thread
creation and exiting, and has no idea about pthread-level concepts
like "pthread_create" and "pthread_join", so these are a bit
ambiguous.
Replace them with track_pre_thread_ll_create, which is notified before
a new thread makes any memory references, and
track_pre_thread_ll_exit, which is notified just before the new thread
exits, that is, after it has made its last memory reference.
r6823: Core-tool interface: give 'needs_tool_errors' an extra Boolean
indicating whether or not the core should print thread id's on error
messages.

renamings to the thread locking stuff, to make it easier to follow.

- track SysRes changes
- track VG_(am_find_nsegment) const-ness change
- increase number of client syscall args supported from 6 to 8
- simplify type SyscallStatus. Simply hold a copy of the SysRes
for the syscall rather than have this be a data structure
incorporating something very similar to the fields of a SysRes,
and more besides. Change various macros in priv_types_n_macros.h
to match.
- syswrap-main.c: instantiate the various impedance-matching
functions for AIX.

interface, except for the syscall numbers, into that. Mostly this
means moving include/vki-*.h to include/vki/vki-*.h.
include/pub_tool_basics.h previously dragged in the entire kernel
interface. I've done away with that, so that modules which need to
see the kernel interface now have to include pub_{core,tool}_vki.h
explicitly. This is why there are many modified .c files -- they have
all acquired an extra #include line.
This certainly breaks all platforms except x86. Will fix shortly.
