The local_symtab_size symtab is caused by the fine differences between
IRIX ELF and ABI ELF. More recent binutils versions switched to ABI ELF
as the default.
Not using -mlong-calls results in ``Relocation overflow'' messages. That's
not the case here, so this option probably was used.
Error messages about _gp_disp proof that the module contains PIC code that
is has not been built using -mno-abicalls -fno-pic.
