In the upstream rev. 1.61 of elf64-sparc.c the following bug was fixed:
* elf64-sparc.c (sparc64_elf_relocate_section): Adjust addend of
dynamic relocs against section symbols for the output section vma.
However, with the addition of TLS support in the upstream rev. 1.104
this fix was essentially reverted. After factoring out the common parts
of elf32-sparc.c and elf64-sparc.c a comment was added to elfxx-sparc.c
in the upstream rev. 1.27 as part of unrelated changes, saying that the
fix from elf64-sparc.c rev. 1.61 indeed should be implemented, but given
that some unspecified OS has a broken ld.so expecting broken relocations
deliberately is omitted.
As the current behavior actually violates the SPARC ABI, FreeBSD never
had such a broken ld.so and this is actually causing problems with at
least kernel modules linked with binutils 2.17.50 committed in r218822
without the workaround committed in r219340 in place, re-implement the
above fix in a way so that is only applied if the output format is
ELFOSABI_FREEBSD. In the upstream version it probably would make sense
to invert this check and only skip adjusting the addend for the OS with
the broken ld.so, once it's determine which one that is.

Merge binutils 2.17.50 to head. This brings a number of improvements to
x86 CPU support, better support for powerpc64, some new directives, and
many other things. Bump __FreeBSD_version, and add a note to UPDATING.
Thanks to the many people that have helped to test this.

Merge ^/vendor/binutils/dist@214571 into contrib/binutils, which brings
us up to version 2.17.50.20070703, at the last GPLv2 commit.
Amongst others, this added upstream support for some FreeBSD-specific
things that we previously had to manually hack in, such as the OSABI
label support, and so on.
There are also quite a number of new files, some for cpu's (e.g. SPU)
that we may or may not be interested in, but those can be cleaned up
later on, if needed.
