--- Comment #1 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
This isn't a binutils bug, unless you believe that "PHDR segment not covered by
LOAD segment" should not cause a link error.  I think the ELF standard is quite
clear: "PT_PHDR ... may occur only if the program header table is part of the
memory image of the program"

binutils-2.30, 2.31, 2.32 and 2.33 all generate a PHDR that isn't loaded by any
LOAD segment, but the code checking for that problem was ineffective.  This
needs fixing in the linker script used by the project, or since it seems like
the binary being generated is never meant to run directly on a glibc system, by
linking with --no-dynamic-linker.
