--- Comment #1 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
I see from the alpha backend binutils code that some relocs are expected in
certain order.  That means I can't use qsort, which is unstable.

Argh!  In fact, even on powerpc we have marker relocs at the same r_offset as
other relocs, eg. on __tls_get_addr calls, and they're expected in a certain
order or TLS optimisation will be disabled.

I need to change that qsort to a stable sort.
