mips-sgi-irix gas emits STT_OBJECT symbols where other assemblers
would use STT_NOTYPE. See mips_frob_symbol in gas/config/tc-mips.c.
Also, the section of some dynamic symbols is set to SHN_MIPS_TEXT or
SHN_MIPS_DATA. See _bfd_mips_elf_finish_dynamic_symbol in
bfd/elfxx-mips.c. These differences are visible in readelf output
and cause some tests to fail for no other good reason.
The patch fixes the following fails and removes an xfail.
