My tree is at r341703.  The last paragraph of the commit 
message for r339350 is

  Just remove filter_reloc.  This fixes certain cases including statically
  linked binaries containing ifuncs.  Stripping binaries with relocations
  referencing removed symbols was already broken, and after this change
  may still be broken in a different way.

So, I guess I'm hitting the "broken in a different way".

The gdb82 backtrace ends up in jemalloc.  I do build world with
MALLOC_PRODUCTION="YES".  Perhaps, ifuncs+jemalloc aren't at
production level.  I have few more broken static binaries that
I need to replace before I can rebuild without MALLOC_PRODUCTION.
