  I don't think 0.9.25 had problems, since currently, tcc_relocate() calls
tcc_relocate_ex() (if HAVE_SELINUX is not defined).  The only thing I can
think of is that a significant amount of code expected the 0.9.24 version of
tcc_relocate() and it was easier to change 0.9.25 than to change the
existing code, but that's just conjecture on my part.

  -spc (I did try to keep the patch as simple and isloated as possible)
