Sections aren't supposed to have addresses assigned in relocatable
output and it of course breaks things. I'll try newer version of
binutils but at this point it looks like a linker bug. Can you please
report it to ubuntu too?

I just tried 2.20 on openSUSE.

$ ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils; devel:gcc / openSUSE_11.2) 2.20.0.20091104-13.2

and it doesn't show such behavior. Can you please report this to
ubuntu and let me know the bug#?

i will double-check on the other machine in a few days ... it may be, that i am using a toolchain ppa, that installed some unstable/odd/buggy binutils ...
but i somehow doubt, that this is the case :/

cheers, tim
