there was a IA64_RELOC_NONE patch, but in a different area of glibc...
looks like we just hit it again at a different spot now...


    580   /* ??? Ignore MSB and Instruction format for now.  */
    581   if (R_IA64_FORMAT (r_type) = R_IA64_FORMAT_64LSB)
    582     *reloc_addr = value;
    583   else if (R_IA64_FORMAT (r_type) = R_IA64_FORMAT_32LSB)
    584     *(int *) reloc_addr = value;
    585   else if (r_type = R_IA64_IPLTLSB)
    586     {
    587       reloc_addr[0] = 0;
    588       reloc_addr[1] = 0;
    589     }
    590   else
    591     assert (! "unexpected dynamic reloc format");

r_type is 0 at the assertion
