libroot wouldn't build due to this.  I found a way to make GCC accept
-nostart (basically making an alias to -shared), but do we really need
-nostart in build/jam/MainBuildRules anymore?  I would think by now we
can simply replace it by -shared, correct?

AFAIK both should be interchangeable.

If so, I was wondering if while we're at it, we can remove BeOS as a
build platform in our configure file.

I would be surprised if you could actually still do so. In any way, Haiku is a much better build platform, as BeOS was unbelievably slow building Haiku. So yes, let's get rid of it.
