I would really like it if someone, especially Alexander or Darius or
both, could build u-boot and send me the whole u-boot ELF binary (not
the raw binary) along with the commit ID of the source tree they built
and the exact version of binutils they use, so that I can look up and
compare the whole things. It could be a change in the relocation code of
binutils, for instance; but I can't find out without the ELF binaries.

I don't need the -fPIC version; the one with -pie alone is the one I need.
