+Subject: [PATCH] elf: Return error on unsorted symbol table if not allowed
+
+Normally ELF symbol table should be sorted, i.e., local symbols precede
+global symbols.  Irix 6 is an exception and its elf_bad_symtab is set
+to true.  Issue an error if elf_bad_symtab is false and symbol table is
+unsorted.
+
+        PR ld/33450
+        * elflink.c (set_symbol_value): Change return type to bool and
+        return false on error.  Issue an error on unsorted symbol table
+        if not allowed.
+        (elf_link_input_bfd): Return false if set_symbol_value reurns
+        false.
