            Bug ID: 19520
           Summary: [2.26 regression] R_386_GOT32X relocation breaks gcc
                    bootstrap with non-gld/gold linker
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.26
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gas
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: ro at TechFak dot Uni-Bielefeld.DE
                CC: hjl.tools at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---
              Host: i386-pc-solaris2.*
            Target: i386-pc-solaris2.*
             Build: i386-pc-solaris2.*

The new R_386_GOT32X reloc introduced in binutils 2.26 break gcc mainline
bootstrap
with gas 2.26 and Solaris ld, which doesn't handle it:

ld: fatal: relocation error: file cpuinfo_s.o: section [5].rel.text.startup:
invalid relocation type: 0x2b

Even if support were introduced, there's guaranteed a large number of older
linkers in the field that continue not to support it, so there needs to be a
way
to disable its generation.
