This mkimage.sh is 'kaffe/config/i386/oskit/mkimage.sh', right?

> What is this -L supposed to do ? 

The -L is an option to find on FreeBSD that cause find to use the file
pointed to by a symbolic link, rather than the link itself.  If you
don't have any symbolic links in the way, then there should be no
problems with removing it.  (On Linux '-follow' seems to be
equivalent, but is probably just as non-standard.)

I'll just remove the -L, if users have symbolic links, they'll have to 
deal with it.  :)
