The -mthumb support works by passing extra -L options to the linker. 
Try using -v and looking at the linker options.

You didn't include your linker script, but a possibility here is that 
you are overriding path names in your linker script, preventing the -L 
options from working as intended.

Also, note that there is a linker --verbose switch that may help debug 
what the linker is doing.
