Pike from https://pike.lysator.liu.se gave a strange error on macppc,

$ pike --features
ld.so: pike: unsupported insecure BSS PLT object
Killed

The PLT is for relocating function calls.  The old BSS PLT for powerpc
is extinct.  Pike used ld -nostartmodules to link a module with no
function calls.  This module has no PLT, and ld.so confused the
absence of a PLT with the presence of a BSS PLT.  This diff fixes it
by moving the check for the secure PLT (if PPC_GOT is nonzero) after
the check for any kind of PLT (if PLTREL is RELA).  Now pike doesn't
die, but if I make a BSS PLT, it still dies:

$ cc -fuse-ld=bfd -Wl,--bss-plt -o here here.c
$ ./here
ld.so: here: unsupported insecure BSS PLT object
Killed

ok to commit?
