Hello,

i recovered, that there are two sections (like Vincent sad) called .data.rel 
and .data.rel.local. Strange, because they can be easily confused 
with .rel.data etc. but well, i've read something on google, that they are 
new to gcc 3.3* or so. it also seems, that these sections are needed trough 
references, but not covered by the link script and so they are pushed 
somewhere in the output (elf-file). my reason for handling this would be 
inserting an *(.data.*) into the data section from the link script 
u-boot.lds.

if anyone knows, for what these sections are, please mail me

thanks

anton wöllert
