Comment (by hsyl20):

 Isn't it fixed with Phab:D1470?

 In master, the proddable block is wrong when we copy the section:

 {{{
 4799: addProddableBlock(oc, ehdrC + offset, size);
 }}}

 should be

 {{{
 4799: addProddableBlock(oc, start, size);
 }}}

 Maybe this would be enough to solve the issue. (If it does, I don't see
 why we only have it on ARM though).

 As for "other" sections (cf comment:3), they are skipped during the
 relocation, so I guess the failing relocation is not for the 2 sections we
 see in the last part of the log in comment:2.
