What version of the GNU binutils are you using? There have been several
bugs in this area, and the fix is in the GNU linker and how it interacts
with plugins. Try using the latest development version of the GNU
binutils. If that doesn't help, file a bug report at
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla with a complete self-contained test case.
