+ * elflink.c (elf_link_input_bfd): Don't use linker_mark and
+ SEC_EXCLUDE to test for sections dropped from output. Instead,
+ use bfd_section_removed_from_list on normal sections. Don't
+ attempt to handle symbols with unknown reserved section indices.
+ * linker.c (_bfd_generic_link_output_symbols): Don't use
+ linker_mark to test for symbols belonging to dropped sections.
+ Do allow absolute symbols.

* elf32-i370.c (i370_elf_fake_sections): Don't set SHF_EXCLUDE on
group sections.
