This bug has seen no activity in a long time.  Submitter, if you still
feel that this is an issue (and the problem still exists with glibc
2.3.1), can you supply some more details?  Like Ben said previously, I'm
not aware of any specific requirement that there be a 1:1 correspondence
between STT_SECTION symbols and actual sections.
