binutils 2.15 and gcc 4.2.1.  The problem turned out to be the
combination: gcc 4.2.1 produced code that binutils couldn't assemble
properly.  That was what was causing the relocation error.

The two include files aren't a toolchain issue.  They can't be because
uboot's makefile has said not to include anything from the standard
include files.  These files aren't included with u-boot.
