Yes.  Since glibc's ld.so doesn't handle them, you could merge the
DIR17F thru DIR21L cases with the DPREL ones immediately above.  ie.
turn the warning into a hard error.

I think when I wrote that code, I was distinguishing relocs that could
be handled by ld.so from those that can't (DPREL are only valid in the
main app).  It's a rather pedantic distinction when ld.so doesn't
provide support though!

I'm not sure why the warning was turned off for DIR17F .. DIR21L.  It
was probably an over-enthusiastic change when disabling other warnings.
