An undetected change in GCC 3.2.1-release sources, imported on
December 4th, 2002, effectively caused an ABI change on FreeBSD/i386
5.x. The change in GCC source is believed to be a bug and the issue will
be brought to attention of GCC developers.

  Necessary changes to bring our traditional calling convention back
have been applied to both CURRENT and RELENG_5_0 branch. Unfortunately,
this means that all the software, compiled during the breakage window
and which is using functions returning structs by value, will have to be
recompiled.
