After staring at the dynamic loader code for a while, I think the following
mmap call in dl-load.c doesn't correctly map the info data for /lib/libdl.so.2.

        /* Remember which part of the address space this object uses.  */
	l->l_map_start = (ElfW(Addr)) __mmap ((void *) mappref, maplength,
					      c->prot,
					      MAP_COPY|MAP_FILE,
					      fd, c->mapoff);

The info data is near the end of the mapped segment.  The l_info field
is initialized by elf_get_dynamic_info from the dynamic data mapped
at l->ld.

I seem to recall that the kernel mmap implementation on hppa is somewhat
unique.

In the above call, mappref is NULL.  The kernel selects the map location.
