  Log:
  Avoid using the global offset table to get the address of _DYNAMIC in
  rtld.  When _DYNAMIC is referenced normally from C the global offset
  table is used implicitly, but newer versions of binutils don't initialize
  it statically in the binary, so this doesn't work until rtld is relocated,
  which _DYNAMIC is needed for...  So, as on other systems with the same
  problem, we disassemble a call instruction to _DYNAMIC in order to get
  its address.
