The special reserved .got entries are still initialised.  The others
which have relocations don't need to be initialised as the reloc will
set the value.  It was only an accident that entries against _DYNAMIC
(_not_ the special reserved entry with the value of _DYNAMIC) were
previously being initialised.

As you say, the problem is solved by pic code, and that's exactly how
the new hppa version of elf_machine_dynamic works.

Note that glibc ld.so still has a problem on hppa if it ever hits any
of the asserts in dynamic-link.h:elf_get_dynamic_info, as these all try
to make reference to their string args at the unrelocated address.
