Looking at just the first one, avr_fix_adjustable() has a comment very
much suggesting that xfail is correct to use there. Looking over the
set of "excluded" reloc types in tc_m68k_fix_adjustable() gives the
impression (to me) that "ordinary" relocs can be converted, so again
xfail looks appropriate. I didn't look further.

With the previously mentioned issue (vax vs xgate) still being there.
