This problem, of course, only arises because the .dynamic section is
not in your linker script. If you were using the standard linker
scripts generated by the ld build process, it would probably work.
The problem is that the parameter file for mips-elf has
GENERATE_SHLIB_SCRIPT=yes, so -shared is allowed by the linker, but
you're using a handwritten (from libgloss) linker script that doesn't.
So orphan placement is kicking in.
