Can you fill this function to handle some basic relocations, so that it can handle some basic programs (such as a hello world written in assembly)? You can create another patch which depends on this if you want to separate them. The point is that I don't want to leave this stub empty for a long period of time.

Sure thing. As already mentioned I'm not really PPC savvy so it might take a little bit (a day) before I study the assembler and come up with a non-trivial example. @hfinkel, do you have any recommendations?

davide removed rL LLVM as the repository for this revision.

The code now handles basic relocations correctly (enough to link an ASM hello world, as proposed by Rui).

Above file has "REQUIRES: ppc" and here we have "REQUIRES: powerpc". Which is correct? Even if both are correct, please choose one of them and use it consistently.
