This is missing an important piece, I think.  There's no way to
disambiguate duplicate symbols.  Before, there was reloc->val, which
contained the symbol's address.  There's nothing like that here.

I think we could use sym->st_value for that purpose.  After Chris's
patch set gets merged, it could contain the sympos.
