dunno, actually only a few PPC/Linux people are using snapshots right now (it
is needed to build the egcs mainline). I get this FAIL since early January,
981227 is the last snapshot I have without this problem. What can I do to help
to track down this problem?
Whoops, I was confused. I confused that test with others. That test
was only added in January 3, so it most likely never worked on PowerPC
GNU/Linux.
That test uses a special linker script,
ld/testsuite/ld-shared/elf-offset.ld
That linker script is probably missing something that is in the
default PowerPC ELF linker script, ld/scripttempl/elfppc.sc, which is
causing the problem. (You can see the default linker script in a
slightly more readable form by running ld --verbose).

maybe glibc-2.1/glibc-2.1.1pre1 enforce this? Do people on other glibc-2.1
platforms see this failure too? Or is it PPC only?
Actually, there should be PHDR and INTERP entries also; the dynamic
linker is probably complaining about the lack of a PHDR entry.
