Re: gold linker 2.22 regressed for DragonFly [revised testsuite results]

It does pass on GNU/Linux, but it's not an interesting test case at this
point.

Hard to understand why this would fail. The __bss_start symbol is
defined automatically by the linker itself.

My first guess would be that DragonFly does not support dl_iterate_phdr,
or that it does not work correctly for statically linked executables.
That's just a guess, though.

This is almost certainly the same issue as the --no-ctors-in-init-array
issue: DragonFly does not suppor DT_INIT_ARRAY.

Yeah, if the dynamic linker does not handle relro, then these tests are
expected to fail.
