--- Comment #15 from hpa at zytor dot com <hpa at zytor dot com> ---
So ldlinux.elf on BIOS is an odd duck. It contains bits that are relocated and
bits that are not relocated, but the two components cross-call, and both have
symbols that need to be exported.
2.25 generates output that has the unrelocated values (that is, what would be
exported from the linker script without -pie) in the output sections, and
R_386_RELATIVE relocations in .rel.dyn.
At the same time, I also observe that with 2.25, there seem to be
R_386_RELATIVE annotations for locations which reference ABS symbols, which
seems very odd; fortunately that particular code is all executed before
relocation is performed.
I'm going to muck with the linker script to see if I can improve the situation.
