we saw this on Blackfin some time ago and it was tracked back to attribute mismatches in
assembly files:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/tracker/3638
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/linux-kernel/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=/trunk/arch/blackfin/mach-
common/entry.S&r1=3898&r2=3897&pathrev=3898

when `ld -r` ran, the sections named .text couldnt be combined due to different attributes so ld just added the .# 
suffix for us

if you have scanelf installed (from pax-utils), that might help track back the source object ... `scanelf -qrk .text.1 ./`
