Reproduction case

The attached test case was constructed via some assembly files from the ARM ld
testsuite.  The only real change I made was to take the linker script from
`arm-none-eabi-ld --verbose` and comment out the output section description for
'.rel.plt'.

The problem can be reproduced as follows (with binutils built from HEAD):

$ tar xvfj arm-none-eabi-no-rel-plt-crash.tar.bz2 
arm-app.s
arm-lib.s
Makefile
my.ld
$ make
arm-none-eabi-as   -o arm-app.o arm-app.s
arm-none-eabi-as   -o arm-lib.o arm-lib.s
arm-none-eabi-ld -shared -o arm-lib.so arm-lib.o
arm-none-eabi-ld -o arm-app -T my.ld arm-app.o arm-lib.so
arm-none-eabi-ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.22.52.20120724 assertion fail
/home/meadori/Code/src/binutils/bfd/elf32-arm.c:14086
make: *** [arm-app] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
make: *** Deleting file `arm-app'
