Details

configure.in does not contain the right shared library rules for NetBSD. I have
added them. It has been tested on NetBSD/i386, and should work on the other
NetBSD platforms.

Furthermore, I removed the "gcc can come with its own linker, so let it handle
shared lib creation" line, because it's wrong most of the time: gcc can have an
arbitrary linker as its backend, that may not support -h, for example.

The NetBSD changes rely on the 2nd patch being applied.

I compromised and left the existing stuff alone, and hard-coded
the NetBSD-specific stuff you needed.  I think I got it right....
Let me know if I screwed up.  Checked into revision 1.90.
