A recent BFD change caused a build failure for a Windows->PPC cross:
ld.exe: ../bfd/libbfd.a(coff-rs6000.o):coff-rs6000.c:(.text+0x4571): undefined reference to `getuid'
ld.exe: ../bfd/libbfd.a(coff-rs6000.o):coff-rs6000.c:(.text+0x457e): undefined reference to `getgid'
This patch fixes the problem by moving the replacement definitions of
getuid and getgid to system.h.

* archive.c (getuid, getgid): Move...
* sysdep.h (getuid, getgid): ...here.
Best practice is to not mix lseek/read with fseek/fread on the same
underlying file descriptor, as not all stdio implementations will cope.
Since the plugin uses lseek/read while bfd uses fseek/fread this patch
reopens the file for exclusive use by the plugin rather than trying to
restore the file descriptor. That allows the plugin to read the file
after plugin_call_claim_file too.

* plugin.c (bfd_plugin_open_input): Allow for possibility of
nested archives. Open file again for plugin.
(try_claim): Don't save and restore file position. Close file
if not claimed.
* sysdep.h (O_BINARY): Define.

(plugin_object_p): Don't dup file descriptor.
binutils has lacked proper pluralization of output messages for a long
time, for example, readelf will display information about a section
that "contains 1 entries" or "There are 1 section headers". Fixing
this properly requires us to use ngettext, because other languages
have different rules to English.
This patch defines macros for ngettext and friends to handle builds
with --disable-nls, and tidies the existing nls support. I've
redefined gettext rather than just defining "_" as dgettext in bfd and
opcodes in case someone wants to use gettext there (which might
conceivably happen with generated code).

The current hard coded limit of open files in bfd/cache.c is 10. This
is pretty low these days. Binaries are often linked against much more
than 10 files (and sometimes against more than 100 shared libraries).
When debugging with GDB some files are opened and closed multiple
times because of this low limit. If possible make the BFD cache file
limit depend on the actual open file limit of the process so more BFD
files can be open at the same time.
* cache.c (BFD_CACHE_MAX_OPEN): Remove define.
(max_open_files): New static int initialized to zero.
(bfd_cache_max_open): New static function to set and return
max_open_files.
(bfd_cache_init): Use bfd_cache_max_open.
(bfd_open_file): Likewise.
* configure.in (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add sys/resource.h.
(AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add getrlimit.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.in: Likewise.
* sysdep.h: Check and include sys/resource.h for getrlimit.
