I have experimented with GCC 4.0.3, 4.1.0, and 4.1.1. I found that
4.1.x behave the same; however, GCC 4.0.3 does not emit GOTOFF32
relocations. Apparently these are a new feature and preferable in some
instances since they do reduce the number of instructions by one.
However, GOTOFF32 does not work when a the relocation is emitted for a
symbol in the .text segment. As far as I know, any XIP application
with a static callback function should fail if it's compiled with
arm-elf-gcc 4.1.x. If anyone else is using this toolchain, I'd
appreciate the confirmation. The following diff of the output from GCC
4.0.3 to GCC 4.1.1 illustrates the new behaviour.

I've opened a new bug, GCC #28194 [1], for this matter.
