--- Comment #1 from Maciej W. Rozycki <ma...@linux-mips.org> ---
Thank you for your bug report.
Linking an n64 `-msym32'/`-mplt' executable is currently not properly
supported due to a 64-bit mapping address being used by the linker by
default with n64 links. A solution has been discussed before:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2012-11/msg00225.html>, however it
will require an ABI update and some effort to implement and is likely
not going to happen soon.
Meanwhile if you do require this combination of options to work, then as
a workaround I suggest using a linker option to override the default
mapping with a 32-bit address, e.g. `-Ttext-segment=0x400000' (picking
the address used with the o32 ABI), or `-Wl,-Ttext-segment=0x400000' if
passed through the GCC driver.
I'll keep this bug open for tracking purposes, as the issue hasn't been
properly recorded previously, and in the interim I will look into
converting the assertion into a proper user-comprehensible error message.
Does it help? Let me know if you have any questions or comments.
