Unfortunately, elf64_x86_64_check_relocs prohibits 32bit relocations, which
makes it impossible to link 32/64 bit code together in some cases though may be
needed in low-level loaders and such.
We faced this problem when tried to link together 32bit asm code with 64bit
system code. The target binary is loaded at virtual addresses lower then 4GB,
so
there is no problem in such a mix, except for ld doesn't allow to link the code
together.
Attached patch fixes the problem.
