Subject: Re: BFD_ASSERT failure in elf32-mips.c with possible fix

The following c-torture case:
extern int abort();
typedef int (*frob)();
frob f[] = {abort};
main()
{
exit(0);
}
Thanks for the note. I think this patch is more nearly correct, since
it won't waste space on an unnecessary .rel.dyn section.
I don't consider the dynamic linking code in elf32-mips.c to be
particularly robust. It doesn't even pass the ld testsuite on Irix 5.
