Most likely a case of new kernel, ld.so compiled with old gcc.  Old is
earlier than 25th Oct.  Before that gcc put plabels, which need
relocating, in .rodata, which is mapped read-only.  The new kernel
enforces the read-only mapping, so you run into problems when ld.so tries
to relocate itself.

Fortunately, you only need recompile glibc with a new gcc.  Older binaries
with plabels in .rodata are handled OK as ld.so re-maps the segments
read/write, something it doesn't manage to do for itself.
