[patch] s390: remove pc relativ relocation from start.S.

Hi,
while linking PIE executables an issue has been found with the startup
code for shared libs and pie executables. Scrt1.o is not position
independent since it contains a pc relative relocation against main()
in the .text segment. The attached patch fixes this.

blue skies,
  Martin.

	* sysdeps/s390/s390-32/elf/start.S: Replace pc relative relocation
	by a GOT relocation to make Scrt1.o position independent.
	* sysdeps/s390/s390-64/elf/start.S: Likewise.
