Proposed patch

Hi Guys,

  Right - the cause is that there are IFUNCS in one of the object files being
linked.  (In bglib/rt/librt_pic.a:clock-compat.os).  As far as I know the MIPS
linker does not support IFUNCS.  (I may be wrong - I am not a MIPS expert).

  The uploaded patch changes the ABORT in the linker into a more helpful error
message, but it does not actually fix the underlying problem.

  My guess is that either IFUNC support needs to be added to the linker (by
someone who understands MIPS IFUNCS) or else they need to be removed from the
link.

  Please give the patch a try and let me know what you think.

Cheers
  Nick
