[OE-core] binutils regression: internal error in set_address

[Enrico Scholz]

Hi,

recent binutils upgrade[1] breaks dot assignments within NOLOAD sections.
E.g

$ echo '_start:' > foo.S
$ cat <<EOF >foo.ld
SECTIONS {
	.stack (NOLOAD) : {
               . = . + 128;
	}
}
EOF
$ arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc foo.S -T foo.ld
arm-linux-gnueabi/4.7.2/ld: internal error in set_address, .../binutils-2.22/gold/output.h:189
