This is the ld -z combreloc bug. Fixed in 21.4.6 and 21.5.4.
Use --pdump as a workaround.
I dug back a bit and found this from Nov 22 (the 21.4.6 notes):
4) A fix, actually two of them, for the "crash mysteriously on making
first frame" bug. GNU ld now literally stirs up your binary
before giving it back to you, leaving you fried. You can either
pass -z nocombreloc to ld, or use --pdump. Autoconfiscated,
should "just work". Bleeding edge Linux users, please test.
Is the autoconfiscation not in the 21.5 tree, or is it broken?
It certainly didnt "just work" with a CVS 21.5 from the last 48 hours
or so...
