Thanks for catching up this error in the comment. I meant GP of course, which
is even more preferable that GOT (which is what we load, not what we compute).

OK, that was also my intention to submit the 3rd hunk (the one that fixes the
jump to the landing pad around the constant table right ?) as a separate patch
as it will require the approval of a middle end maintainer. 
If it cannot go in the trunk before the 4.5 freeze I can propose you to commit
your workaround (comment #23) so not to block the regression. Then we can
revert when the proper patch is discussed/accepted. (I'm a little bit late for
that sorry).
