Hi Taras,

  This sounds like a loader problem to me, rather than a binutils bug.  It is
relatively easy to rearrange the order of the .gnu.version, .dynstr and .dynsym
sections (see the uploaded patch), but I do not think that this is right way to
solve the problem.  If the loader is performing some backwards io to get at
those sections then I would suggest that it ought to be recoded to keep them in
memory after reading them for the first time.

Cheers
  Nick
