You'll have to be a little more specific.  You can start with the ELF spec
to understand what relocs and dynamic relocs are all about.

It turns out there was no ld bug, though an objdump bug led me to believe
the contents of the file were different than they truly were and conclude
there was an ld bug.  I worked around what I thought to be an ld bug before
realizing this, so I did not actually investigate every corner of the
problem.  Off hand, I suspect the problem was ld.so containing a PC32
(i.e. non-PIC-flavor) reloc to a symbol name.
