Dynamic linker and hash-style=gnu

Hi all,
 
I have been recently puzzled by some binaries failing to load:

  ld-elf.so.2: makedepend: Shared object has no run-time symbol table
    
This error appears with programs linked with the "--hash-style=gnu" option.
ld --hash-style=gnu only writes a new ".gnu.hash" section in ELF files, and
not the classic ".hash" section.

It seems the runtime loader in DragonFly has no support for the ".gnu.hash"
section or it is not activated.
