The snippet below was written when a new major release of FreeBSD
would happen every couple of years, not as frequently as recently
the case.  FreeBSD 1.x and 2.x, and a.out support, have been obsolete
for what must be a decade or so, yet the regular expressions now
match, and cause troubles for, FreeBSD 10.x.

I am planing to apply the patch below as obvious.  If we want to
be more conservative, I could just yank the -*-*-freebsd[12] pattern.

Rainer, Loren, any thoughts?

Gerald

Given that this is no longer present in gcc/config.gcc, but those a.out
configurations are rejected there wholesale, I think the patch is right.
