Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] suppress modpost warnings for references from the .toc
Date: Thu, 24 May 2007 14:16:13 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070524141613.4ba38e2f.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> (raw)

We should do better here by effetively "dereferencing" references to
the .toc (or the .got2) section, but that is much harder.
