Modified Files:
	src/gnu/dist/bfd: elf32-mips.c
Log Message:
egcs-1.1 emits .gcc_exception_table sections for C++ exception info on
mips, which causes binutils-2.8.1 ld (also 2.9.1) to coredump due to
an unrecognized dynsym index.

add ".gcc_except_table" to the list of section names which can appear
in the .dynsym section of an elf-mips [irix5, sic] binary. Confirmed
to fix the coredump for both binutils 2.8.1 and 2.9.1 ld.

Patch from Castor Fu <castor@geocast.com>. Reported to bug-gnu-misc
with this patch, should appear in a future binutils release.
