Yes, and you were right, if I removed GNU ld from the path, it builds
fine...

Here's something for you though:

If I remove the -bpT:0x10000000 -bpD:0x20000000 from the link specs,
the thing compiles fine.  (this is still using GNU as...)

If I don't use GNU as , it also compiles fine. (Well...so far, knock
on wood :)
