Hello,

I found this one while playing with Cygwin's code which takes care of
seamless loading of dll functions (autoload.cc). It seems that when a
symbol in a section marked .linkonce is referenced, wrong relocation info
is generated for that symbol.

For example if you have several symbols - symbol1, symbol2 and symbol3,
- which are placed like this:

offset name
     0 symbol1
     3 symbol2
    15 symbol3

References to this symbols will be generated like this:

symbol1 -> 0
symbol2 -> 6
symbol3 -> 30

I am attaching a testcase. linkonce.cc is the code which demonstrates the
problem. linkonce1.cc is the same code but with .linkonce directives
removed and doesn't suffer from the problem. Here is also the output of
`objdump -r' on both object files.

$ g++ -o linkonce.o -c linkonce.cc
$ objdump -r linkonce.o

linkonce.o:     file format pe-i386
