I had problems with Roland's change to the linker script generation.
Adding PROVIDE to define __start___libc_freeres_ptrs etc didn't work for
some reason.  I've removed the PROVIDEs now.  This means we have a few
more symbols where they don't belong but it's better than nothing.  This
might be a linker bug but I'm not sure about this at this point.

What broken results did you see?  It looked ok to me.  The linker produces
the symbols as undefined locals in the libc.so .symtab, which is odd.
But it uses the right values in the GOT, where it matters.

The problem is simply that at the libc_freeres handling doesn't happen
and therefore mtrace tests fail.
