How is libxpcom being built?  Are they doing any fancy linker tricks?
If so, try turning them off.

If that's not an option, then look into using hte ld-elf.so from
-current.  The alpha rtld in -current was recently updated to make
less assumptions about the ordering of sections & generally be more
bullet-proof.

(be careful installing it, and save the old version somewhere where
you can replace it using only statically linked binaries).
