Since updating from libgcrypt 1.5.x to the head of master in GPG for Android,
I now get this warning from the Android linker:
libgcrypt.so has text relocations. This is wasting memory and is a security
risk. Please fix.
It seems to happen whenever any program that links to libgcrypt starts. This
is a bit beyond my knowledge of linking. Anyone have any ideas or pointers?
The only thing I could find is this bug in the Android NDK:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23203
But I'm using NDK r9b, and that issue was apparently fixes in r8c. Attached
is the full text of `readelf -a libgcrypt.so`.
