I believe that this can be enabled by turning the "-z combreloc" option |
| 9 |
to "ld" on by default (probably by using a patch). However, this breaks |
| 10 |
binary compatibility with existing packages, which makes upgrading to |
| 11 |
this new functionality quite a challenge. It may be something that must |
| 12 |
be enabled (via a USE var) at bootstrap-time only. |

"combreloc" combines multiple reloc sections and sorts them to make |
| 17 |
dynamic symbol lookup caching possible. |

This feature may need additional glue in the dynamic linker. I'm not |
| 22 |
sure if the support is there yet. You can probably do a google search |
| 23 |
for "combreloc" and get more information. |
