The easy fix is just to put

.bss ALIGN(4096) {
    ...
}

in the link script... but it smells like a hack.. ;-)

No burning tree thankfully!  It was good thinking to phase the patches 
like you did.

I'll be away for 2 weeks from next Monday (off to the US for FCCM and 
RAW conferences) - so we'll see what we can get in this week, then work 
out a plan for when I'm gone.

Thanks for your efforts,

John
