Is there any reason not to apply this patch? None of the other sbss
infrastructure appears to be present for ARM.
In other news, the empty .sbss section created without this patch is marked
as alignment 2**0, SHT_PROGBITS, CONTENTS. Which is obviously wrong but I'm
not sure how to fix that. That's what got me looking at the problem; the
prelinker in some situations gets quite upset by this.
