It's supposed to be after BSS_SECTION. I'll send you a new pair of
patches with this fixed and Sam's acks added shortly.

These were build-tested originally; it seems I introduced this bug when
rebasing the patch past the recent DISCARD changes, and failed to retest.
Sorry about that (I think you are right that it was more generally a
mistake to not clearly tag these patches as build-but-not-run tested in
the first place. I'll do that in the future).

My cross-compile environment is unavailable at present, so the new version
will be completely untested as well.
