[Bug target/17828] -O2 -fPIC doesn't work with switches in linkonce functions and new binutils

GCC 3.3.x has the same problem.
Not sure if we want to backport COMDAT patches to GCC 3.3 and 3.4.
Other possible alternative would be to:
a) change ppc32 linker script, so that .got2 section includes both .got2
   and .gnu.linkonce.got2.* sections
b) change rs6000 backend, so that it uses per-function .got2 sections
   for linkonce functions
Or change ld to not error on this problem for another 3 years until all compilers
use COMDAT.
