+Subject: [PATCH] Enable -Bsymbolic and -Bsymbolic-functions to PIE
+
+Before binutils 2.26, -Bsymbolic and -Bsymbolic-functions were also
+applied to PIE so that "ld -pie -Bsymbolic -E" can be used to export
+symbols in PIE with local binding.  This patch re-enables -Bsymbolic
+and -Bsymbolic-functions for PIE.
