--- Comment #2 from Michael Matz <matz at suse dot de> ---
Yep, can reproduce here, thanks for that.  Without the fix the emitted relocs
for
-r are really wrong (as in: unsorted).  But obviously, using insert sort in
these situations is terrible: it's used because we need a stable sort here,
and qsort isn't necessarily so, and because this never caused speed problems
in the past (when it still was wrong :) ).

So, yeah, we definitely need something better here.  I'll go look at this next
week.
