relocations in gas

Hello,

Still on the calmrisc16 port, I encountered the problem that gas
adjusted fixups in a mergeable section. This results in incorrect
relocations when merge occurs at link time.

In found this fix:
in write.c, replace 

if ((symsec->flags & SEC_MERGE) != 0
	    && (fixp->fx_offset != 0 || fixp->fx_subsy != NULL))
	  continue;

by

if ((symsec->flags & SEC_MERGE) != 0
	    && (fixp->fx_offset != 0 || fixp->fx_subsy != NULL ||
fixp->fx_addsy != NULL))
	  continue;

Effectively taking in account the 'add symbol'. Maybe there is a
better way to handle this?

Cheers,
JP.
