The mainline versions of both GNU ld and gold now put .ctors sections into
.init_array sections, and put .dtors sections into .fini_array sections.
.ctors/.dtors sections with priorities are sorted correctly with
.init_array/.fini_array sections with priorities.
The gcc patch is still useful as it will permit eliminating the support for
constructors and destructors in crtbegin.o and crtend.o. If we can do that I
believe that crtend.o can be removed, and crtbegin.o will only be needed to
call
_Jv_RegisterClasses.
