problems with ld, when linking libstdc++

[Thomas Bogendoerfer <tsbogend@alpha.franken.de>]

With a little help from gdb, I've narrowed my problem with building
libstdc++s.so a little bit down.

Ld aborts, when I try to link a .o file, which has a .eh_frame section
in it. When I strip out that section, the abort doesn't happen. The abort()
is in elf32-mips.c:5131 (binutils 2.8.1).

What does the .eh_frame section do ?

Thomas.
