Whoa, that was a fair bit of work. ;-)

I say go ahead and commit the changes, but it would also be a good idea to
add the COMPAT_AOUT_ALTPATH option to the GENERIC config file of each m68k
port which has been converted to ELF, along with a brief comment 
describing what it does.

Also, the `m68k-options' section of the options(4) man page should be
updated to reflect both COMPAT_AOUT_ALTPATH and COMPAT_AOUT_M68K. (Yes, it
looks like I was lame and forgot to add the latter...)
