I didn't realise this was an --enable-shared build. gas links against the
shared libopcodes, which means you are linking against the whole libopcodes.
libopcodes has a reference to floatformat_to_double (in arm-dis.c), causing
floatformat.o to be linked from libiberty. A static link would only pull in the
parts of libopcodes used by gas, so no arm-dis.o needed.
It's a little nasty that libopcodes.so needs libiberty like this. Every app
linked against libopcodes.so thus pulls in parts of the static libiberty whether
or not the app needs it.
