glibc 2.1 and gabi

[H . J . Lu]

Hi,

I added support for the new DT tags from the new gABI. However, glibc
2.1 doesn't support them. I got

BUG IN DYNAMIC LINKER ld.so: dynamic-link.h: 57: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed!

on DT_RUNPATH and DT_FLAGS when -Bsymbolic and -rpath are used. I
checked Solaris 2.7. Solaris ld.so doesn't complain DT_RUNPATH nor
DT_FLAGS which it doesn't know. I tend to think it is a glibc 2.1 bug.
But I don't want to break glibc 2.1. I'd like to add a new option
to ld to turn on the support for the new DT tags. Any suggestions?
I am thinking of "-z gabi" for lack of imagination :-). 

Thanks.
