Unfortunately, I have no idea... There are similar problems with gcc
build, so I use:
# Prevent GPREL16 relocation truncation
LDFLAGS += -Wl,--no-relax
BOOT_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--no-relax
to finish the bootstrap. IMO, this points to linker problems.
Perhaps rth (CC'd) can say something about this problem.
Uros.
