Hi,
I spotted a bug in ICF today. When ICF spots a relocation to a
string merge section it inlines the section contents. However, if the
string is empty there is nothing to mark that a relocation was
present. This caused a program to incorrectly fold sections. This
trivial patch fixes the problem.

* icf.cc (get_section_contents): Add '@' marker after processing the
merge reloc.
