[RFA] pdp11.c: Fix link errors


This patch cures two issues with linking for pdp11: 

When the program is larger than 32 kB, you'd get relocation truncated errors because the relocation overflow check was set to "signed", but "unsigned" is appropriate for pdp11.

When linking against libraries with debug symbols you'd sometimes get duplicate definition errors on names that are in fact stabs entries, not globals.  This is caused by code that looks for N_BSS|N_EXT entries, but that code point is used for N_FUN instead.

Tested by build for pdp11 target and check of the gcc testcase that caught this.

Ok to commit?

ChangeLog:

	* pdp11.c (howto_table_pdp11): Make overflow check unsigned.
	(translate_from_native_sym_flags, pdp11_aout_swap_reloc_out,
	aout_link_check_ar_symbols, aout_link_add_symbols): Remove case
	for N_BSS|N_EXT.
