Yes, I think our current pressing problem is to discover why hppa64-ld
is generating out of range PCREL17F branches instead of stubbing them. 
That's definitely what's causing the boot failure in 2.6.6-rc1-pa0.

It's so strange.  Since the init section is quite a way away, it should
already be stubbing jumps to the init section.  I can't work out why the
addition of yet another section (this time covering scheduler functions)
suddenly causes it to fail.
