This is a different problem. In the original case, gold was trying to allocate
something in a discarded section. I don't expect that case to work, but it does
need a better diagnostic.

In this case, the .eh_frame section isn't discarded, but we're trying to get
its address before it's been computed (since .eh_frame is a linker-optimized
section, it hasn't been finalized yet). This case really ought to work.
