I was right and also wrong. Alan's patch does fix the testcase. But it
is incomplete. I have a weird large program. I got
/export/build/gnu/binutils-debug/build-i686-linux/ld/ld-new: BFD 2.13.90
20030426 internal error, aborting at
/export/gnu/src/binutils/binutils/bfd/elf32-i386.c line 2356 in
elf_i386_relocate_section
with the new linker. The patch enclosed here seems to fix it. I will
try to come up with a small testcase later. The question is if my
patch is enough and if I missed something else.
