Thiemo,

One more thing I forgot about your patch:

I think that addresses for MIPS_DATA symbols follow the same rule
as in MIPS_TEXT: These are absolute addresses, so we need to substract
the section base address as well, to turn them into offsets. I verified
this empirically by inspecting an executable that had some MIPS_DATA
symbols.
