As a data point, I tried vanilla 3.8.4 on the weekend. With my
usual config on a UP1500, it will fail at build time with
relocation errors. If I remove -msmall-data (or replace it with
~big~), the machine hangs hard immediatly after aboot telling me
it's starting it. I'll take a closer look later today, but there
seems to be a very fundamental thing wrong with the startup code
in these scenarios.

Tobias
