Maybe

 * Support for DT_RELR relocation relocation format has been added to
   glibc.  This is a new ELF section type that improves the size of relative
   relocations in shared object files and position independent
   executables (PIE).  DT_RELR support requires linker support for
   -z pack-relative-relocs option, which is supported for some abi in recent
   binutils versions.
