  Just looking at the names, I'd guess they represent

R_ARM_PLT32 : 32-bit reloc against PLT base address.
R_ARM_ABS32 : 32-bit reloc against absolute address 0.
R_ARM_REL32 : 32-bit pc-relative relocation.
R_ARM_PC24  : 24-bit pc-relative relocation (probably an immediate offset
operand within a branch instruction)

  Of course, the definitive answer to "what they do" should be described by
the relevant HOWTO structs, in conjunction with any special case code in
elf32_arm_relocate_section.
