R_MIPS_32 handling

Hi,

I have a testcase that has a R_MIPS_32 in a .rel.debug_info against an 
externally defined symbol. Since .debug_info is non-alloc,  ld isn't 
able to convert it into a dynamic reloc and create the shared object. 
Can anyone comment on how this reloc should be handled?

Reduced testcase:

$ cat /home/ryan/efun.c
extern void err (int, const char *, ...);
static void (*efunc)(int, const char *, ...) = err;

$ mips-unknown-linux-uclibc-gcc -O ~/efun.c  -g -fpic -shared
/home/ryan/tools/mips-unknown-linux-uclibc/mips-unknown-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: 
non-dynamic relocations refer to dynamic symbol err
/home/ryan/tools/mips-unknown-linux-uclibc/mips-unknown-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: 
failed to set dynamic section sizes: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Regards,

Ryan Mansfield
