I still haven't figured out how to test this. For example:

.section .data
.word x + .Lbar - (.Lfoo + x)
.word .Lbar - .Lfoo
.word (.Lbar - .Lfoo) + 1
.word 1 + (.Lbar - .Lfoo)
.word (.Lbar - .Lfoo) - 1
.word .Lbar2 - .Lfoo2

.section .eh_frame
.Lfoo:
.byte 1
.Lbar:
.byte 1

.section .not_eh_frame
.Lfoo2:
.byte 1
.Lbar2:
.byte 1

(test with "llvm-mc -triple=aarch64_be-linux-gnu -filetype=obj -o - eh-frame.s")

In all of these cases, the new code produces the same result. It seems
that the effects are only visible if Value is non-zero, which it will
only be if both symbols are in the same section. But if that is the case,
EvaluateAsRelocatable will return the same result.
