Hi!

On ia64 ATM -z relro does nothing (but increase the size of program
headers).
H.J. disabled it because it interferred with linker relaxation
(not sure if that still applies or what the testcase was).

This patch makes glibc use -z relro only when the linker does something
with it.

2004-09-20  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* configure.in (libc_cv_z_relro): Only set to yes if linker script
	contains DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END.
	* configure: Rebuilt.
