ld --cref is crashing spuriously (dependent on linkpath inclusion as well as
number of files in the linkpath directories) with a glibc detected corrupted dl
list, and I've tracked it down to a memcpy in ldcref.c. valgrind reports memory
errors when doing the memcpy at lines 261 and 303 of the head revision, and the
following patch corrects the crash and valgrind does not report any memory
errors with it:

I believe this corrects the code to perform the intended action, and using the
sizeof(struct cref_hash_entry) was a mistake to begin with.
