Subject: DT_SYMBOLIC and -Bsymbolic

Hi,

Do the current binutils snapshots and the Linux ELF dynamic
linker support DT_SYMBOLIC? It should be easy to add -Bsymbolic
to ld. The Linux ELF dynamic linker just needs to check the
presence of DT_SYMBOLIC in the shared library to control the
symbol binding. It is specified in the ELF doc, ELF.doc.tar.gz,
on tsx-11 and sunsite in the linux gcc directory
