It seems to me that output_offset should be the same in both
cases.  I've run a couple tests which work with this change.

Does this seem correct?


No.  The code is correct for excluded sections in general.  You
shouldn't be using symbols from merged sections directly.  See
_bfd_merged_section_offset, _bfd_elf_rel{,a}_local_sym.

Thanks. Calling _bfd_elf_rela_local_sym worked.
