Interesting, what have you found?

I would expect that it makes a difference when using lots of shared
libraries and the old sysv hash.

I am not sure if that would still be the case with .gnu.hash and
specially if one day direct binding is implemented (-Bdirect)

In other words, I think it is useful for now for at least some users
and I am happy to have it.

Cheers,
Rafael
