------- Comment #10 from sje at cup dot hp dot com 2009-10-30 21:54 ------- I am not sure if this would help or not but it might be interesting to try the -mno-sdata flag on the compilation to see if that helps. By default GCC on IA64 will use .sbss (short bss) and .bss (normal bss) sections. -mno-sdata will turn off the use of .sbss.
