dynamically loaded modules into the now-static libyasm. I now anticipate
that there would be very few users of the dynamic loading features, and it
yielded a lot of instability and build headaches for very little benefit.
The new build should now be much more cross-platform and faster (there was
a lot of overhead in finding and loading modules).
* libtool.m4, ltdl.m4: Delete.
* m4/Makefile.am: Rename to m4/Makefile.inc and remove references to above.
Change to use subdirectory (flat) build rather than recursive build.
* Makefile.am: Include m4/Makefile.inc rather than having it in SUBDIRS.
* libltdl: Delete.
* frontends/yasm/yasm-module.c: Delete.
* basename.c, dirname.c: Delete (no longer needed by yasm-module.c).
* genmodule.c, module.in: Generator and template for new module.c included
in libyasm that replaces the old yasm-module.c (module.in is a modified
rename of yasm-module.c).
* module.h: Modified rename of old yasm-module.h.
* libyasm.h: Include libyasm/module.h.
* libyasm/Makefile.inc: Build generator and include module.c in libyasm.
* yasm.c: Use new libyasm module interface.
* (many) Makefile.inc: Remove libtool libraries, build all modules into
libyasm library.
* configure.ac: Remove libtool/libltdl references.
* Mkfiles/vc/yasm-module.c: Remove. Still need to fix some of the other
Mkfiles/ build files for these changes.

control whether the symbol is replaced with the symbol's value (old
behavior), or just replace it with 0 (new optional behavior). The old
behavior is enabled by setting relocate=1.
* expr.h (yasm_expr_extract_symrec): Likewise (and document new behavior).
* elf-objfmt.c (elf_objfmt_output_expr): Use new function (with relocate=1).
* coff-objfmt.c (coff_objfmt_output_expr): Likewise.
* expr.c (yasm_expr_extract_segment): Renamed to yasm_expr_extract_segoff, a
more approprate name given what operator it looks at.
* expr.h (yasm_expr_extract_segment): Likewise.
* x86bc.c (x86_bc_jmp_tobytes): Use new function name.
* expr.c (yasm_expr_extract_seg): New function to remove SEG unary operator.
* expr.h (yasm_expr_extract_seg): Likewise.
* expr.c (yasm_expr_extract_shr): New function to split SHR operator into
left and right halves.
* expr.h (yasm_expr_extract_shr): Likewise.
* xdf.h: New header file describing the newly added Extended Dynamic Object
Format (XDF). Note: GCC-only code.
* xdfdump.c: New utility that uses the format described in xdf.h to
completely dump an XDF file. Note: non-portable code (runs correctly on
little endian machines only).
Neither of these files are currently included in the distribution.
* xdf-objfmt.c: New YASM objfmt module to output XDF format object files.
* modules/objfmts/xdf/Makefile.inc: Add to build.
* modules/objfmts/Makefile.inc: Likewise.
The XDF object format is a blend between COFF and OMF. It is a very simple
object format intended for use by operating system loaders or similar types
of targets. It allows shifted relocations (useful for static interrupt or
page tables), both flat and segment-relative, and the use of the SEG, WRT,
and x86 JMP FAR notations.
Test cases will be committed soon.
