Replacing a Builtin Function which is supposed to return the  correct
size  of  the  output  file's headers by a hardwired value which just
happens to be correct in one case is definitely not  acceptable,  not
even as a temporary workaround.

Simply don't use tools that are broken on such a basic level. And  if
you  want to use them, so either bug the binutils folks iuuintil they
fix it, or fix it yourself.  But  don;t  break  perfectly  legal  and
working code.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
