I think the definition of "non-trivial" here should be "all relocation types which have a side-effect based on the symbol's identity". 

And I think we should be able to avoid adding new target-specific code for this by using the existing TargetInfo::getRelExpr virtual function, and then switching on the returned RelExpr enum.
