OK. This seems like the place to attack this problem since we're not going
to link against any shared libraries, but we still need to create the
.dynamic sections.
Any suggestions on how to force the add_object_symbols routine to create
the dynamic sections even if it hasn't seen a dynamic object?
Or is there some other hook I could use to call into the routine to make the
dynamic sections?
