I have uploaded a patch to this PR which I think might correct the 
linker's behaviour, but I am not familiar with FDPIC on the FRV so I may 
well have made a mistake.  Would you guys care to take a look at it ?

I am not sure about whether this is important or not, so I have the 
special case code in.

Cheers
