Unfortunately, this patch causes the following regression for about every
test of the prelink testsuite, in -mabi=64 configurations (only):

    mips-wrs-linux-gnu-prelink -c ./prelink.conf -C ./prelink.cache --ld-library-path=. --dynamic-linker=./ld.so.1 -vm ./reloc1

I'll try to hunt down where this ``64-bit DWARF not supported'' is coming
from, and why handling SHT_MIPS_DWARF in prelink can be responsible for
it, but if anyone has any ideas already, please tell me.
