thus isolating the "iffy hueristic" from the rest of the relocation code.
* In the "iffy hueristic", use _GOT_END_, not _DYNAMIC.
* Include the addend in Alpha R(RELATIVE) relocations.
old PLT format, and one that works with the new.
XXX We currently always use _rtld_bind_start_old() in
_rtld_setup_alpha_pltgot(). We need to add code to peek
into one of the PLT entries to see which format it's in
and pick the correct binding routine.
relocs for local symbols as section-relative REL32 relocs with values based
at 0, whereas previously BFD generated those relocs with values based at the
start address of the section.
This code adjusts all STT_SECTION REL32 relocs which have values less than
the start of the section by adding in the base address of the section. This
may limit section sizes to 2GB, but that shouldn't be a problem for now.
XXX: Needs to be followed-up with binutils list to get closure on which
interpretation is correct (the new ABI or the old one), I just haven't
yet had the time to chase that.
use to find the end of the GOT, rather than relying on _DYNAMIC
to immediately follow the GOT. (A change in current binutils
moved _DYNAMIC, and thus would have broken our Alpha ld.elf_so).
* Add #ifdef'd out code to deal with the new PLT format.
with them, rather than defaulting them to zero. This caused breakage with
the drawf EH stuff and init/fini code when they weren't used by the caller
(and hence the appropriate handlers were left undefined). Also fix an un-
initialized variable in symbol.c that only MIPS MD code tripped over.
_rtld_bind_start must save and restore the condition codes. Varargs functions
(like, say, printf()) depend on the state of cr1 to determine whether they need
to store floating point registers in the save area. Without this, the first
call to any particular varargs function will fail if floating point values were
passed.
was ambiguous in the case of a weak symbol that was not defined. This caused
RTLD_NOW to fail badly with shared libraries linked against the new crtbegin.o.
<uvm/uvm_param.h> does not exist under 1.5. Tested on i386 and sparc.
Anyway, if it is indeed needed by other platforms then we'll put it back,
but I don't see how since it does not define any types.

any references to them from the globals list... This fixes SIGSEGV with
apache+mod_php+mysql.
XXX: This fix should be pulled up.

`switch()' code may be translated using a jump table approach which causes
it to reference the equivalent of a global variable, something that must
be avoided before _rtld_init() has run.
