I'm able to reproduce the problem with 4.2.0 on linux/x86.
valgrind-3.2.0/memcheck/mc_main.c has
359 static AuxMapEnt hacky_auxmaps[N_AUXMAPS];
...
362 static AuxMapEnt* auxmap = &hacky_auxmaps[0];
There's no direct use of hacky_auxmaps except through auxmap.
Anyway, 4.2 leaves the relocation:
# readelf -s ./bad.o | grep aux
323: 00000000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT UND hacky_auxmaps
# readelf -r ./bad.o | grep aux
00009c87 00014301 R_386_32 00000000 hacky_auxmaps
#
which obviously can not be resolved.
The bad relocation is in .rel.debug_info section.
I'll try to trace back why the bad relocation is generated.
