Something like the following patch would make all of them fall Ken> into the 22-bit immediate offset relative to gp. The position was chosen to maximize the amount of data that can be addressed via the GOT. As you observe, that doesn't maximize the amount of data that can be addressed in a GP-relative fashion.
