llvm dev - Nov 2013 - [LLVMdev] section relative expressions

It looks like llvm-mc isn't treating section relative expressions correctly.

In this example:
.text
mov (.rodata+0), %rsi
.section .rodata
.byte 0xff


llvm-mc will create an undefined symbol for the expression,
".rodata+0"
and a relocation will be generated against the undefined symbol not the 
section.

Should be fixed in r219835. Thanks!
