relocations

[Stuart Clarke <stuart_clarke at beeline dot ag>]

Hi all,

I am attempting to compile a simple program on my i386 machine for an ARM 
target.  In doing this, GCC produces a relocation section in its output file 
(.rel.text).  This relocation section is of the no-addenda variety, however, 
and is incompatible with the system on which I am attempting to run my 
program.  Said system requires a .rela.text section for its relocations (i.e. 
one with addenda values).

GCC doesn't seem to have a run-time option for producing a rela.text section 
rather than a rel.text one.  Is there any means by which the GCC source could 
be patched/adjusted to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Stuart
