Hello, all

I am trying to test my patches against trunk. Unfortunately I am unable
to build on my main system using the development release of
Trisquel. I've tested with r6275 where everything used to work. The
build process breaks there as well:

CC         cpu/amd/mtrr/amd_mtrr.ramstage.o
    CC         cpu/amd/microcode/microcode.ramstage.o
    CC         cpu/x86/lapic/lapic.ramstage.o

    CC         cpu/x86/lapic/secondary.ramstage.o

    CC         coreboot_ram.o
    CC         coreboot_ram
src/arch/x86/coreboot_ram.ld:129 cannot move location counter backwards (from 0000000000140000 to 0000000000004000)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [build/coreboot_ram] Error 1

The specified line is the last in the file. Recently I've upgraded to
the development release of Trisquel. This probably changed the ldd
version. There are no changes to coreboot_ram.ld in trunk since December
2010, so it must be ldd. I am able to build in gNewSense both trunk and
r6275.

Version of ldd in Trisquel 4.5 Slaine (develpomnet release), based on Ubuntu
10.10:
$ ldd --version
ldd (Ubuntu EGLIBC 2.12.1-0ubuntu10.2) 2.12.1

Version of ldd in gNewSense 3.0 MetaD, based on Debian lenny:
$ ldd --version
ldd (GNU libc) 2.7

Any suggestions?
