Hi,

A recent binutils commit:

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commitdiff;h=1a9ccd70f9a75dc6b48d340059f28ef3550c107b

has broken kernel builds:

/home/anton/gcc.install/bin/ld: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N
/home/anton/gcc.install/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value

I guess we have an issue with our linker script.

Anton
