Historically we've used a special construct _DYNAMIC@gotpc to refer to base address of GOT This has been done with a special hack in binutils which tools guys now wish to get rid off.

So rewrite the 2 callers of this construct to use the simpler and more obvious constructs. There's existing _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE symbols provided by linker which can be used for same purposes.

Please ignore this one - it is broken with current binutils ! Assembler is also converting _DYNAMIC@pcl into _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE v2 to follow ! -Vineet
