This is a permanent change. The new binutils defaults have changed to generate
binaries, which are more convenient for runtime linker to relocate. The code
in [x]emacs is not prepared to deal with the change in format and thus will
have to be fixed, or the while issue could be worked around by linking
[x]emacs binary with -znocombreloc.
