Summary: Fix compile/link when using Darwin 8

Initial Comment:
Darwin 8's headers are anal about POSIX compliance, and linking 
has changed (prebinding is now deprecated, and libcc_dynamic no 
longer exists).  This configure patch makes things right.

I did have write access, I was confused by the fact that my python24 tag 
was checked out anon.  Committed.

Apparently I don't have write access to this part of CVS yet, so I can't 
commit this.  Here's the commit message I would've used:

patch [1171735] - Darwin 8's headers disable functionality when POSIX
is enabled.  This prevents the toolbox glue, all of Carbon, and various
other non-POSIX features from compiling.  The POSIX symbols are 
stillused by default, so turning off the #define doesn't hurt.

Additionally, linker flags have changed for Darwin 8, and are different
for Darwin 8/gcc4 (default) and Darwin 8/gcc3.3.  

Approved by Anthony

This is an updated version of the patch.  When using gcc4, libcc_dynamic 
does not exist.  Previous versions of gcc require it.  So the linker flags are 
dependent on the gcc version.

This fixes compilation on Darwin >= 8 with gcc < 4.0 (gcc 4 is the default)

tomorrow after sufficient testing.
