The file causing the problems is entry.S, so it's an assembler file, not
a gcc file.

It has a .level 2.0w (with the appropriate #ifdefs) at the top.

Now, if you look at an objdump of the .o, it shows:

000000000000205c <syscall_do_resched>:
    205c:	e8 40 00 00 	b,l 2064 <syscall_do_resched+0x8>,rp
			205c: R_PARISC_PCREL17F	schedule

    2068:	08 00 02 40 	nop

I suppose this means gas thinks it has to emit short relocations.

You have access to what I'm seeing; my kernel build environment is on
