But it is incomplete. I have a weird large program. I got /export/build/gnu/binutils-debug/build-i686-linux/ld/ld-new: BFD 2.13.90 20030426 internal error, aborting at /export/gnu/src/binutils/binutils/bfd/elf32-i386.c line 2356 in elf_i386_relocate_section with the new linker. The patch enclosed here seems to fix it. I will try to come up with a small testcase later. The question is if my patch is enough and if I missed something else. H.J.
