Hi Nick

I found this bug by building the prelink package from FC5 and running the "make
check" in ./testsuite"
I looks like the new prelink ísn't ok on alpha.
However:
- glibc
- gcc4.xx
aren't so much supported on alpha any more and redhat ignores the checks from
glibc and gcc and other packages - just running it for fun. I build the most of
the packages from FC5 on alpha (alpha.steudten.com).

 rpm -q glibc gcc binutils
glibc-2.4-8
gcc-4.1.1-1.self
binutils-2.17.50.0.3-3

I put reloc1.tgz as attachment.
Running the test: sh -x ./reloc1, or readelf -a [reloc1,reloc1.orig]

You can find there:
a) reloc1.BUILD: how to build the files
b) reloc1.*READELF: the output from readelf -a reloc1..
c) readelf.ok, readelf.fail: readelf from binutils with and w/o my patch.
d) the new build of prelink.

If you need more details, please let me know.

Regards
Tom
