[Bug dynamic-link/14341] Dynamic linker crash when DT_JMPREL and DT_REL{,A} are not contiguous

As said in the bug description, nothing in the ELF spec (afaik) obliges that
DT_JMPREL and DT_REL{,A} are contiguous. As a matter of fact, the dynamic
linker handles them being separated just fine when not binding at open.

That being said, elfhack was modified to work around the issue. That doesn't
make it less a bug in glibc.
