I checked in a slightly different testcase to check symbol in the output.

Nick, your reply is odd. My message you quoted is from

http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2008-12/msg00247.html

But it has a different subject:

Re: PATCH: PR ld/9676: link-failure: could not read symbols: Bad value

The subject of your reply matches:

http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2008-12/msg00241.html

which is for PR 9679:

http://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9679

I am enclosing an updated patch with a testcase.  OK to install?

Thanks.
