It seems x86_64-kfreebsd-gnu has been broken for a while.  I
just realized that I wrote a patch to fix this in 2006 [1], but
somehow it was never merged in GCC (actually I'm not even
sure I submitted it).

In the meantime Debian GNU/kFreeBSD has been using this
patch to build GCC on their "kfreebsd-amd64" port.

I can prepare an updated version of this patch (relative to
trunk + your linux.h overhaul [2]).
