Jakub, could you please make a target to fail with DW_EH_PE_absptr if
it doesn't provide the necessary support. I have no plan to revert my
gcc mips change and check it out on mips. Also, you mentioned
DW_EH_PE_absptr works on i386 even without your ld fix. Did you do
something special for i386 in gcc?  With your ld fix, is the special
treament still needed for i386? If yes, does that mean other targets
may need the special treament for DW_EH_PE_absptr?
