I'd be interested in seeing a preprocessed source file that causes
this behavior.  Back when I was working on SH-PIC support, I had seen
this hunk in your patches, and couldn't find any situation in which it
would make any difference, even when linking shared libraries.  It
seems that I didn't try hard enough :-(

I wonder whether this isn't some incorrectness in the code generated
by the compiler.

Please send me, off line, the preprocessed source file, as well as the
command lines used to compile this file and to create the shared
library.  Thanks!
