I should mention that these were warnings also...I still was able to build
executables that ran.

The message comes from a line in "claim_rrs_relocation()" in rrs.c of ld:

	if (rp->r_address < text_start + text_size)
		warnx("%s: RRS text relocation at %#x for \"%s\"",
			get_file_name(entry), rp->r_address, sp->name);

The warning is just that, the code continues and does it's thing.
The function only appears to be called when doing a shared object relocation
of non-PIC code or when resolving a reference to shared library from
non-relocatable code.

Could anyone more in the know on these things give a pointer to what the
problem is and what might need to be changed to fix it?
