The aarch64 assembler in Binutils no longer encounters an internal error when processing %dtprel relocations. This error occurred because the fixup for DTPREL was created before reserving storage for the corresponding .xword. This issue was exposed by GCC’s %dtprel support for TLS Debug info, which places the fixup at a fragment boundary. The fix ensures storage is reserved before the fixup is created.
