           Summary: ld from binutils 2.21.51.0.6 mishandles differences
                    between two section-relative symbols
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.21
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden

Linker script

Defining two section-relative symbols in a linker script and subtracting them
produces the wrong result (specifically, they end up with the section base
added in.)

See attached test case; in particular, %ecx gets 0x500 loaded into it instead
of the expected 0x100.
