How can I link a program with a starting address of 0x100000000 for its text?

Bug fixes to elf64-x86-64.c, probably.  :)  The following should silence
the _Jv_RegisterClasses warning.  I'll leave the rest of the fix to
the x86_64 maintainers, as I don't have crt files for x86_64 handy.

	* elf64-x86-64.c (elf64_x86_64_relocate_section): Don't warn on
	branches to undefweaks.
