[Bug ld/1882] New: ld 2.16.90.0.3 link failure on MIPS64: "not enough GOT space for local GOT entries"

[creideiki+sourceware-bugzilla at lysator dot liu dot se]

On MIPS64 (SGI Octane with one R10k running Gentoo Linux) ld 2.16.90.0.3 fails 
with the message "not enough GOT space for local GOT entries" when attempting 
to 
link some programs ("login" when building with Portage, "groupadd" when 
building 
manually, but always the same program when built the same way) from Shadow 4.0.
13 (I'm working on a smaller test case). All other programs from the same 
package, and all other packages I've tried, build without incident. Shadow 4.0.
12 builds fine with binutils 2.16.90.0.3, and Shadow 4.0.13 builds with 
binutils 
2.16.1.

Steps to reproduce:
1. wget ftp://ftp.pld.org.pl/software/shadow/shadow-4.0.13.tar.bz2
2. tar -xjf shadow-4.0.13.tar.bz2
3. cd shadow-4.0.13
4. configure --without-selinux
5. make
