Should asm("" : : : "memory") order accesses to the GOT?

Hi,
the subject says it all, should address loads from the GOT considered as memory
accesses?
Currently this is not true at least on PPC and so I can't use the asm() to
cure a glibc-2.1.1/ld.so segfault (gcc-2.95pre moves an access to the GOT
before the call to the bootstrap relocation of ld.so).
This is just a question for understanding, it has come up while trying the
"easy" workaround.
Franz.
