That was originally me. When I ported gcc to sparc/ELF I still discovered
some problems with shared library handling which would go away if one used
the gcc-provided crt{begin,end}S.o . In the end the problem turned out to be
a problem in our crt{begin,end}.o which was fixed at about May last year in
-current and pulled up to 1.5 in December. 
(For the interested, catching an exception across shared library borders
didn't work and caused a SIGABRT.)
