While printing
msmpeg4.c:1072: relocation truncated to fit: blah against '.bss'
is normally helpful to users, it occasionally gets in the way when you're
trying to work out exactly what relocation went awry. Especially since at
this point local symbols have been resolved, so all you see is .bss, not
the original source symbol foo which lives in the .bss section.
At this point, it may be more helpful to see
msmpeg4.c:(.text+0xbe2): relocation truncated to fit: blah against '.bss'
than it is the original line number. With this an experienced programmer
can at least use objdump/readelf and match up the offsets to see what's
gone wrong.
