Well it is rather unusual to specify -e with -r.  It really only makes
sense if your system runs relocatable executables.

The fix for http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5533
changed ld's behaviour.  (I hadn't noted this change, which is why
I thought it unlikely that there was a problem with ld's reporting
of missing entry symbols.)  I'm inclined to think the warning is
correct though.
