32/64 support now on Linux and FreeBSD.

Turns out that FreeBSD is close enough to Linux that it "just
worked".
It's always nice when that happens, especially when there's
not much FreeBSD-specific work going on,
and the autotesters have generally been on older versions of
FreeBSD such that issues on the newer
versions don't always get noticed (e.g. for a while there, the
shared library stuff passed the tests
on FreeBSD 8 but not later; fortunately Martin got that fixed
though).

I haven't put much time into investigation, but the last time I
tried it, neither 9 nor 10 passed the test suite. If someone
puts in the effort to get either or both of those working, I'd
be happy to upgrade some of the freebsd testers to newer
versions. There's currently 4 freebsd machines, so plenty of
room to have a mix of versions. Not enough to test every
combination of version and bitness, but enough to allow
randomness to expose issues.
I know that the druntime and Phobos unit tests pass on 11 (which
is what I'm currently running), and I'm fairly sure that they do
on 10 (I don't know about 9), but I have no idea what the state
of the dmd tests are on anything newer than 8. I'll have to see
if I can find time to at least see what's currently working and
report issues.
