--- Comment #3 from Carlos O'Donell <carlos at redhat dot com> ---
The proposal to the ABI seems stalled and probably needs to be pushed again to
the gABI group with the updated wording for review again? The alternative is
not to extend the gABI but consider this a GNU ABI extension. If Google has
interest in moving this forward someone needs to be a change champion here and
work with upstream.

Objectively I have no problem with SHT_RELR, but it should be documented in our
ABI docs *somewhere* so we have a concrete place to discuss future changes and
accept those changes.

Today the gABI list is a "consensus" group with Cary Coutant documenting that
consensus. The GNU ABI is implemented by the GNU Toolchain, so there is
probably some consensus there that needs forming, but we can do that too.
