   In order to get linkonce sections working on IRIX6, we need something like
   the following patch.  It's ugly to put this is elf.sc, but putting
   it in elf32bmipn32.sh didn't work because RELOCATING is not defined
   at the point that file is sourced.  (Another approach would be to change
   that, but that change would be obtrusive, and could subtly affect other
   emulations.)

This sort of thing is what OTHER_RELOCATING_SECTIONS is for.  Will it
work to just define that in elf32bmipn32.sh?
