What we'd like to do is to open up a hole in the bfd output section
and insert a springboard in it, so that the offending instruction can
instead branch to that nearby springboard and then use an absolute
address embedded in the springboard to jump to the far-distant target.
Usually referred to as a "trampoline" or "stub". For yet another implementation, see bfd/elf64-mmix.c, handling of R_MMIX_PUSHJ_STUBBABLE. See also gas/config/tc-mmix.c for when these relocs are generated.
Thanks for your help! Bill
