Previously, the bootloader would only provide a single memory range.
At least on VirtualBox, this memory range includes the ACPI tables,
which the kernel then happily overwrites when executing VM. Much of
the infrastructure to use a fullblown memory map is already in place;
this patch adds the last (and strangely missing) bit of generating
the memory map in a multiboot-compatible way.
It should be noted that both the bootloader and the kernel actually
violate the multiboot specification by not packing the structure for
the memory ranges. This is a NetBSD bug, but it is also a nonissue
for (our) practical purposes. It can be fixed without changing the
code added in this patch.

- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

The NetBSD boot loader loads automatically the kernel module appropriate
for the detected root file system; it is preset at "ffs". The MINIX3fs
support does not reset the underlying global variable, since there are
no use for this on MINIX. As a result, the boot loader searches for
/ffs.kmod, and issues two warnings about "module failure to open/load."
