I see x86_64-linux and powerpc64le-linux segfaults with this patch.

I'm also unconvinced that we need bfd_link_hide_symbol.  We'll be
calling bfd_elf_record_link_assignment for any symbol defined by a
linker script.  Why can't bfd_elf_record_link_assignment be corrected
if it is doing something wrong?
