GNU/Hurd: ld.so.1 crashes while resolving symbols

[Andrea Monaco <andrea.monaco@autistici.org>]

After successfully building latest glibc, I test it with the following:

  GLIBC=/root/glibc/build

  GCONV_PATH=${GLIBC}/iconvdata LD_DEBUG=all LC_ALL=C
  ${GLIBC}/elf/ld.so.1 --library-path
  ${GLIBC}:${GLIBC}/math:${GLIBC}/elf:${GLIBC}/dlfcn:${GLIBC}/nss:${GLIBC}/nis:${GLIBC}/rt:${GLIBC}/resolv:${GLIBC}/crypt:${GLIBC}/nptl:${GLIBC}/dfp:${GLIBC}/mach:${GLIBC}/hurd
  /root/glibc/bug-fstat


Shared objects are found and linked, but then the loader crashes.
Here's the last part of the output

Killed


"bug-fstat" is my test program, but every program I tried does the same,
it crashes right after finding symbol "__writev".

After many printf, I singled out the exact instruction that causes the
crash, which is line 361 in sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h (marked with >>):


      switch (r_type)
        {
# ifndef RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
        case R_386_SIZE32:
          /* Set to symbol size plus addend.  */
          *reloc_addr += sym->st_size;
          break;
# endif
        case R_386_GLOB_DAT:
        case R_386_JMP_SLOT:
>>        *reloc_addr = value;
          break;


Is this obvious?  Even if I made mistakes while building, I don't think
a crash is expected.
