Is DT_TEXTREL supposed to be supported on s390 31-bit or not?

Hi!

While DT_TEXTREL libraries are clearly unsupported on many architectures and
on some even ld fails to link them, s390 31-bit (unlike 64-bit) DT_TEXTREL
libraries used to work.  But apparently only when targetting old CPUs, with
say -march=z900 or newer relocations like R_390_PC32DBL are created and
ld.so (nor prelink) handles them.
So my question is, do we just want to say that DT_TEXTREL on s390 31-bit is
not supported at all, or do we want to handle the relocations that can
appear in -fno-pic 31-bit libraries?
