Upstream update.
Signoff both,

This release contains bugfixes accumulated over the last 13 months since
the release of 2.4 in September 2010.
New in 2.4.2 2011-10-17:
* New features:
- The --with-pic configure option now supports a list of comma-separated
package names. This can be used to build some static libraries
with PIC
objects while building others with non-PIC objects.
- Initial support for Go, using the gccgo compiler.
- On Mac OS X .dylib is now tried as well as .so with
lt_dlopenext().
* Bug fixes:
- The generic approximation of the command line length limit (when
getconf is
not available) works again. Regression introduced in
v2.2.6-39-g9c3d4d8.
- The bug that leaked developer tool paths into the release tarballs
from ./bootstrap is fixed.
- Improved support for the Cuda Compiler Driver (nvcc) on Darwin.
- For GCC LTO support, the -fuse-linker-plugin switch is now also removed
when computing compiler postdeps.
* Important incompatible changes:
- The undocumented hardcode_libdir_flag_spec_ld tag variable has been
removed in favor of using hardcode_libdir_flag_spec with $wl set to
empty.
* Changes in supported systems or compilers:
- Fixes for gfortran on Darwin, XL Fortran on GNU/Linux.
- Support for FreeBSD 1.x (outdated since 1994) has been removed.
