Instead of adding always_check_relocs_in_object_file, I'd suggest
adding a predicate function, dynamic_relocs_compatible.  The default
ELF version would be:

_bfd_elf_dynamic_relocs_compatible (const bfd_target *otarg,
				    const bfd_target *itarg)
{
  return otarg == itarg;
}

The x86 version could check that ibed->dynamic_relocs_compatible
== obed->dynamic_relocs_compatible.
