[Bug c/21502] New: small data relocation mismatch

["rth at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

extern const char f[];
const char f[] = "";
char g(void) { return f[0]; }

In 4.0, we put f in .sdata; as of 20050510 we put it in .rodata but are still
emitting a gprel relocation.  The problem is that by the time we assemble_variable
on f, the type of f has been reset to the indeterminate array.

jsm28 sez this is related to PR21342, and that a similar fix may be needed around
complete_array_type.
