+
+newer versions of gcc generate relocations in the elf_get_dynamic_info func
+which glibc relies on to populate some info structs. those structs are then
+used by ldso to process relocations in itself. glibc requires that there are
+no relocations until that point (*after* elf_get_dynamic_info), so we end up
+crashing during elf_get_dynamic_info because the relocation has not yet been
+processed.
+
+this hack shuffles the code in a way that tricks gcc into not generating the
+relocation. we need to figure out something better for upstream.
