Title: a bug report of binutils-010308

Hello. My name is H.Saito from Japan.

I report a bug of binutils-010308, when specified '-shared' option.
OS is NetBSD-1.4.3 and mips3 and big-endian architecture.

This is a test program.

static int aa = 0;
static int a0 = 0xa0;
static int a1 = 0xa1;
static int *p0 = &a0;
static int *p1 = &a1;
aaa()
{
}

I do "cc -c test.c" and extract ".data" section from test.o
and dumped it.

  offset   data
00000000   00000000  000000a0  000000a1  00000004 
00000010   00000008

I do "ld -shared -o test.so test.o" and extract ".data" section
from test.so and dumped it.

00000000   00000000  000000a0  000000a1  00000004
00000010   00000008

But ld-2.9.1 or ld-2.10.1 can link correctly.

00000010   60020440

0000000060020444 d p0
0000000060020448 d p1

I append a patch.

Thank you. Good bye.
