Mips_got_entry::addend_ is of type Mips_address, which is
Elf_types<size>::Elf_addr, So if you're building on a 64-bit host for
a 32-bit target, you'll have a 32-bit this->addend_, but a 64-bit
size_t. It's not clear to me why you want to mask the addend in either
case, though, and you're not taking advantage of a larger size_t by
shifting it further left. How about just this:
size_t addend = this->addend_;
return name_hash_value ^ this->symndx_ ^ (addend << 16);
If that's OK with you, I'll commit it with that change.
