I think this bug report is correct. Treating RELA differently from REL is
conceptually wrong. The REL version of the code is already ignoring the addend
(the original data at the relocation address), and since i386 normally does not
use RELA, it doesn't matter what the RELA code does (it can't break anything if
it's not in use), but as long as the code is there it should be consistent.
