The linker [ld64] that supports 64Bit does not need the JBSR longcall
optimisation, and will not work with the most generic case (where the
symbol is undefined external, but there is no symbl stub).  So switch
the longcall option off.  ld64 will generate branch islands as needed.

tested on powerpc-darwin9.
applied to mainline
thanks
