I enabled -z relro by default (link_info.relro = TRUE; in ldmain.c)
This causes some of the testcases in ld to fail:

The problem with those testcase it, that ld generates
a PT_NULL section which is discard by strip and objcopy:

The PT_NULL section is generated by
assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections().
ld should probably not emit PT_NULL sections.
