I am enclosing a testcase here. You need an alpha gcc which supports
string merge to duplcate it. I included .o files in my tarball so that
you can duplcate with a cross binutils.

# make
gcc -fPIC -O -c x.c
gcc -fPIC -O -c y.c
ld -r -m elf64alpha x.o y.o
ld -m elf64alpha -O1 -shared -o bad.so a.out -z nocombreloc
rm -f a.out
readelf -r bad.so | grep NONE
000000000000  000000000000 R_ALPHA_NONE
0000000000000000
ld -m elf64alpha -O1 -shared -o good.so x.o y.o -z nocombreloc
readelf -r good.so | grep NONE
make: *** [all] Error 1
