This has been fixed.

        * emultempl/pe.em (gld_${EMULATION_NAME}_after_parse): Don't add
        entry_symbol as an undefined symbol when doing a relocateable
        link.  From <jeffdb@goodnet.com>.

You may want to try a new binutils snapshot and see how it flies. For
prebuilt binaries, see:
