You need to do adjust TC_FORCE_RELOCATION for ip2k.  In your case this
means changing tc-ip2k.c:ip2k_force_relocation.  The function should
return 1 for jump target fixups, which you likely can discriminate
from other fixups by looking at the relocation type.  You may also
need to define tc_fix_adjustable to prevent gas converting a fixup
against your jump target symbols to a fixup against a section symbol.
