Clang is generating a new relocation type (R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX)
that the relocs tool doesn't know about.  This is supposed to allow
        movq    __stack_chk_guard@...PCREL(%rip), %rax
        movq    %gs:(%rax), %rax
to be relaxed to
        leaq    __stack_chk_guard(%rip), %rax
        movq    %gs:(%rax), %rax

But why is clang doing this instead of what GCC does?
        movq    %gs:__stack_chk_guard(%rip), %rax
