Here (debian/etch):
GNU ld version 2.17 Debian GNU/Linux
Maybe one of your patch levels introduced CONSTANT as glue to support
different pagesizes with the same linker script?

Here:
gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)

...
. = ALIGN (0x1000) - ((0x1000 - .) & (0x1000 - 1)); . =
DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN (0x1000, 0x1000);
...
This is the line causing the problem. As you can see, my ld uses
hardwired constants, not CONSTANT(...).
As CONSTANT() is not documented on the sourceware.org/binutils pages I
presume it's a non-mainstream extension.
Maybe we can distinguish between ia64 and i386 targets and set defines
appropriately in u-boot.lds.h? Or use only mainstream LD builtins for
our links scripts.

Carsten
