As I noted, I did a MAKEALL ppc and all the output (sizes, errors, etc) was
the same as before the patch.

I tried a few arm boards, and all the ones I tried failed the same way they
did before the patch.  I don't have toolchains for the other arches
readily available.  Any help in testing this change on non-ppc would be
appreciated.
