+
+   Unsupported r_type's

+   R_RRTBI:
+   R_RRTBA:

+   quite figure out when this is useful.  These relocs are
+   not defined by the PowerOpen ABI.
+
+   Supported r_type's
+
+   R_POS:
+   Simple positive relocation.
+
+   R_NEG:
+   Simple negative relocation.
+
+   R_REL:
+   Simple PC relative relocation.
+
+   R_TOC:
+   TOC relative relocation.  The value in the instruction in
+   the input file is the offset from the input file TOC to
+   the desired location.  We want the offset from the final
+   TOC to the desired location.  We have:
+   isym = iTOC + in
+   iinsn = in + o
+   osym = oTOC + on
+   oinsn = on + o
+   so we must change insn by on - in.
+
+   R_GL:
+   GL linkage relocation.  The value of this relocation
+   is the address of the entry in the TOC section.
+
+   R_TCL:
+   Local object TOC address.  I can't figure out the
+   difference between this and case R_GL.
+
+   R_TRL:
+   TOC relative relocation.  A TOC relative load instruction
+   which may be changed to a load address instruction.
+   FIXME: We don't currently implement this optimization.
+
+   R_TRLA:
+   TOC relative relocation.  This is a TOC relative load
+   address instruction which may be changed to a load
+   instruction.  FIXME: I don't know if this is the correct
+   implementation.

+   R_BA:
+   Absolute branch.  We don't want to mess with the lower
+   two bits of the instruction.
+
+   R_CAI:
+   The PowerPC ABI defines this as an absolute call which
+   may be modified to become a relative call.  The PowerOpen
+   ABI does not define this relocation type.
+
+   R_RBA:
+   Absolute branch which may be modified to become a
+   relative branch.
+
+   R_RBAC:
+   The PowerPC ABI defines this as an absolute branch to a
+   fixed address which may be modified to an absolute branch
+   to a symbol.  The PowerOpen ABI does not define this
+   relocation type.
+
+   R_RBRC:
+   The PowerPC ABI defines this as an absolute branch to a
+   fixed address which may be modified to a relative branch.
+   The PowerOpen ABI does not define this relocation type.
+
+   R_BR:
+   Relative branch.  We don't want to mess with the lower

+   ABI does not define this relocation type.
+
+   R_RBR:
+   A relative branch which may be modified to become an

+   The PowerPC AIX ABI describes this as a load which may be
+   changed to a load address.  The PowerOpen ABI says this
+   is the same as case R_POS.
