Only obj_coff_weak() with BFD_ASSEMBLERs

Changing and debugging reloc processing in BFD is notoriously difficult. 
  It is also well known that bfd_perform_relocations() often fails to do 
what is desired so a lot of backends choose to perform their own reloc 
processing.

For simplicity sake this is what I suggest you do for now.  Look at the 
backend specific file for the target you are interested in (coff-i386.c 
??) and try adding to or defining its coff_relocate_section function.

Cheers
