"k*bsd*-gnu" systems should match the generic "i[3467]86*-*-*" rule below,
which is the same matched by "linux-gnu" systems without "aout" or "oldld"
suffix.

However, by looking at it again I noticed my patch is wrong. I didn't carefuly
look at the *bsd* checks above, so my patch was somewhat redundant, and could
break for newer versions of bsdi*.

I'm attaching a revised version.

mpi/ChangeLog:

2003-11-26  Robert Millan  <robertmh at gnu.org>

	* config.links: Test for *BSD systems explicitly to avoid matching
	other K*BSD-based systems (e.g: GNU/KFreeBSD).
