link problem: Writing section `.text' to huge

[Virgil Anuichi]

Hi,

I have an idea of gcc cross compilation-linking.
However, I'm new to elf header fromats and gnu
scripts.
Trying to port our code (broadcom MIPS) from an old
version of gcc to a new one got me the following
error:

BFD: Warning: Writing section `.text' to huge (ie
negative) file offset 0xbfbfe640.
BFD: Warning: Writing section `.data' to huge (ie
negative) file offset 0xbfc0e710.
/net/scarebc0/export/viewstore/cheetah_vs1/sb1/broadcom_2004e_341/sparc-sun-solaris2.6/bin/sb1-elf-objcopy:
/vobs/webos/export/ALT-HW_CH_FE-6/usr/bin/spboot_hw.bin:
File truncated
gmake[4]: ***
[/vobs/webos/export/ALT-HW_CH_FE-6/usr/bin/spboot_hw]
Error 1
gmake[3]: *** [common.mod] Error 2
gmake[2]: *** [sibyte.mod] Error 2

Our current script looks like this: 

OUTPUT_ARCH(mips)
ENTRY(vec_reset)
SECTIONS
{
  . = 0x9FC00000;
  .text :
    AT ( 0xBFC00000 )
    {
     _ftext = . ;
    *(.init)
     eprol  =  .;
    *(.text)
    *(.fini)
    *(.rodata.*)
     _etext  =  .;
   }

  .data 0x81E00000 :
    AT ( ((ADDR(.text)|0xB0000000) + SIZEOF ( .text )
+ 15) & 0xFFFFFFF0)
   {
   _gp = ALIGN(16) + 0x8000;
   _fdata = . ;
    *(.data)
    CONSTRUCTORS
    *(.sdata)
   }
   . = ALIGN(16);
   _edata  =  .;
   _fbss = .;
  .sbss : {
    *(.sbss)
    *(.scommon)
  }
  .bss : {
    *(.bss)
    *(COMMON)
  }
  . = ALIGN(16);
   _end = .;
}

Also, a good link to some tutorial related to gnu
scripts would mean a lot.

Thanks,
Virgil
