Strange - it appears that this feature is used by at least the mips
backend, (see bfd/elfxx-mips.c:_bfd_mips_elf_add_symbol_hook). Maybe
you can compare your code with that code ?
Mips seems to use it mainly for absolute symbols whereas the problem I
was running into was reloc related. Anyway I was able to figure it out
and get the feature working with some new machinery. Thanks.
