I'd focus on these insns which correspond to the error from the linker:
They're in plural.o within the fucntion gettextparse
ldah $2,yypgoto+2305843009213693936($29) !gprelhigh
Something certainly doesn't look right...
At the .o level this turns into:
218: 00 00 5d 24 ldah t1,0(gp)
218: GPRELHIGH .sdata+0x1ffffffffffffff3
300: 00 00 5d 24 ldah t1,0(gp)
300: GPRELHIGH .sdata+0x1ffffffffffffff3
It's not really a matter of what the instruction does, but a matter of
the relocation. You'd have to look at the definition of GPRELHIGH which
you can find in BFD.
