I think a bigger question is if Solaris/illumos treat l_addr as mapbase
(absolute address) or relocbase (relative address). In the discussion
in the phabricator I had assumed that all other OS's treated l_addr as
the relative offset (relocbase). Does the code for illumos assume an
absolute address or does it assume a relative address in l_addr?
