The fix is in 2.26.1. (I wonder whether using GOLD would work as well here)
Unless something changed gold won't be able to link the linux kernel, afaik it doesn't support its ldscript usage.
What a pity, I'm using gold everywhere and now I'm used to the speed boost... (In reply to Dominique Leuenberger from comment #15)

You might be right, as it is actually broken in a way (and it affects x86 only): https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19520 The fix is in 2.26.1. (I wonder whether using GOLD would work as well here) I'm currently trying to compile a kernel to reproduce it (and not succeeding in doing so with tinyconfig), so I can try that option after the first "successful failure".
I can provide a VM disk image which has a couple kernels installed (most from RPM and one self-built inside the VM. The locally built one failed to boot in my tests, so the kernel tree / config seems 'fine' to reproduce
That would be useful. I'm currently installing TW on a more powerful machine to make full rebuilds a bit quicker. ) <- Closing parenthesis to relieve tension -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
