  I finally nailed this one down.  Stray base relocs against references to
symbols in discarded COMDAT sections remaining in the .eh_frame data cause the
stack unwind lookup to get lost.  Sourceware CVS is down right now but I'll be
sending the attached to binutils when it's working again, and I've started
building a 4.5.3-3 release.
