Hello,
I'm currently not subscribed to the list, please Cc me directly

Building a linux-2.6.x on several different systems,
all with up-to-date tools to match indications in Documentation/Changes,
always fails at this stage:

  CC      arch/i386/kernel/sysenter.o
  LDS     arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall.lds
  AS      arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.o
  SYSCALL arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so
/usr/bin/ld: section .text [ffffffffffffe400 -> ffffffffffffe446]
overlaps section .dynstr [ffffffffffffe1d4 -> ffffffffffffea8d]
/usr/bin/ld: section .eh_frame [ffffffffffffe448 -> ffffffffffffe53b]
overlaps section .dynstr [ffffffffffffe1d4 -> ffffffffffffea8d]
/usr/bin/ld: section .dynamic [ffffffffffffe53c -> ffffffffffffe5bb]
overlaps section .dynstr [ffffffffffffe1d4 -> ffffffffffffea8d]
/usr/bin/ld: section .useless [ffffffffffffe5bc -> ffffffffffffe5c7]
overlaps section .dynstr [ffffffffffffe1d4 -> ffffffffffffea8d]
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so] Error 1
make: *** [arch/i386/kernel] Error 2

All hosts are ia32, one being a P266-MMX, one a PIII-Katmai, 
and a P4. I've tryied upgrading to binutils-2.15 and gcc-3.4.3,
the error is always exactly the same.

I've searched all around for some hint
about what the problem can be or how to dig 
further, without any success.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Davide Manzella
