Hi,

The following patch enables the linker's --relax option by default for CRX 
(and provides the user a --no-relax to disable it).
Checked and tested.
o.k. to apply ?

                 * emultempl/crxelf.em (disable_relaxation): Add.
                 (crxelf_before_allocation): Enable --relax option by 
default.
                 (PARSE_AND_LIST_PROLOGUE): Add OPTION_NO_RELAX.
                 (PARSE_AND_LIST_LONGOPTS, PARSE_AND_LIST_OPTIONS): Add 
--no-relax.
                 (PARSE_AND_LIST_ARGS_CASES): Handle OPTION_NO_RELAX.
