Hi maamountki,

Thanks for creating this patch - it was much easier to apply it to the
sources, and examine the changes this way.  It does seem to me that the
patch does not actually do very much, other than setting values for
SEPARATE_GOTPLT in the linker emulation parameter files, and then adjusting
the linker tests to match.  Is this correct, or should there be more to
the patch ?  [I am not complaining, just asking...]

Also, with the patch applied I am seeing three new linker testsuite 
failures for a toolchain configured as: --target=s390x-ibm-tpf  This
strikes me as a little odd, as I thought that the tpf configuration
was basically the same as ordinary elf.  Anyway, please could you
investigate and fix the patch as necessary ?

Cheers
  Nick
