Hi,
It seems that gold causes elflint to generate errors.

Thanks for the test case. The elflint program is getting confused
when it
tries to find the .dynamic section. The PT_DYNAMIC segment is at address
0x32000. It happens that the .tbss section is at sddress 0x32000. Since the
.tbss section is SHT_NOBITS, it does not take up any address space. The
.dynamic section then follows it, also at address 0x32000. In the readelf -S
output:
[18] .tbss NOBITS 0000000000032000 00032000
0000000000000008 0000000000000000 WAT 0 0 4
[19] .dynamic DYNAMIC 0000000000032000 00032000

This is confusing elflint. It is using gelf_offscn to return the section at
offset 0x32000. That winds up being the .tbss section, not the .dynamic
section. Based on that it decides that there are no DT_NEEDED entries, and
issues the .gnu.version_r warnings.
I don't see any gold problem here.
