You're right, I meant main. Even with that in your perl script fixed,
it still won't work.

Maybe this happened because prelink does special magic with dynamic
sections to create space. I don't understand what else could have
done it.
I don't know how to correlate two lists of sections that are only mostly
the same. I guess, you could add a fallback to the algorithm I
proposed: if each file only has one section with that name, use it,
and otherwise skip the section. We're really guessing at this point though!
