Can't insert probes on Module Funcions

[bibo,mao]

There exists the same problems on my IA64 box against RHEL5 beta1 version.
elfutils version is elfutils-0.123-2.fc6, and here is information of dwflmodtest
test case.
[root@tigerA tests]# ./dwflmodtest -k

output of eu-readelf is very large, here is part of output text.

I ever debug this problem and found that unsupported relocation type is IA64_SECREL32LSB.
in the output result of eu-readelf, relocation type about IA64_SECREL32LSB is all in
.debug_str/.debug_xxx section.I am not familiar with elf-utils tools, I do not know whether
elfutils will analyse .debug_xxx section.

thanks
