A pity I answered a different question though.  :-(

OK..

1) tc_fix_adjustable ensures that the GOTOFF fixup keeps its symbol
   rather than being adjust to be against a section symbol.
2) MD_APPLY_SYM_VALUE stops the symbol value being added in to the
   value passed the md_apply_fix, so md_apply_fix always puts zero
   in the section contents.
