If uClibc's ld.so encounters text relocations in a shared library - one

containing an object built without -fpic/-fPIC - then:

* If __FORCE_SHAREABLE_TEXT_SEGMENTS__, then it gives an error "Can't 
modify %s's text section. Use GCC option -fPIC for shared objects, 
please.\n" and exits.

* Otherwise, it makes the library's pages writable and relocates it.

If it encounters text relocations in a position-independent executable - 
one containing an object built without -fpie/-fPIE/-fpic/-fPIC - then:

* If __FORCE_SHAREABLE_TEXT_SEGMENTS__, it does nothing about making the 
pages writable, leading to a crash.

* Otherwise, the loop to make the pages writable uses the same variable 
ppnt as used in an outer loop, messing up that outer loop and also causing 
a crash.

This patch fixes both cases, by giving an error if 
__FORCE_SHAREABLE_TEXT_SEGMENTS__ and saving and restoring ppnt otherwise.  
Tested in both cases on ARM EABI.
