[Bug gas/11323] Need representation of the offset from a label to a GOT entry

Since this relocation needs 2 parameters, it is difficult to represent as the 
normal relocation specification var(<relocation_type>). I propose the following 
syntax, which is similar to the syntax used to represent GOT table's relocation.

     .word   var(GOTABS)-(.LPIC0+4)

In the expression var is a global variable, var(GOTABS) means the absolute 
address of GOT entry for global variable var. .LPIC0 is a code label. So the 
whole expression means the offset from code label .LPIC0 to global variable 
var's GOT entry. 

Any opinions?
