You didn't provide enough information to help you.  Sorry.  Here are
some notes on how to report bugs in the linker:
    http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/docs-2.12/ld.info/Reporting-Bugs.html#Reporting%20Bugs

Note that the dynamic linker (ld.so, and dlopen et. al.) is not part
of the binutils.  The dynamic linker is part of glibc.
