TEXTREL's in libc.so.6 on debian ppc sid

   While Franz Sirl has fixed the TEXTREL that was happening on
ppclinux in libgcj.so, on debian ppc sid we are still seeing
a TEXTREL occur in builds of glibc 2.3.1 or cvs against gcc 3.2.2-pre
using binutils 2.13.90.0.16 or 2.13.90.0.18. The TEXTREL shows up
as...

howarth@debian:~$ objdump --all-headers /lib/libc.so.6 | grep TEXTREL
  TEXTREL     0x0

in the Dynamic Section:.
Also if I compare the 'objdump --relocs' for libc.so.6 between debian
and Franz Sirl's ppclinux on entropy.crashing.org I see that debian
has two extra entries...

00000000  00000000 R_PPC_NONE                                   00000000
00000000  00000000 R_PPC_NONE                                   00000000

under the section marked...

Relocation section '.rela.dyn' at offset 0x11f38 contains 3581 entries:

Anyone have any idea why this is occurring and only on debian?
