Hi Domani,

  Thanks for the _ctor.o file.  I think that I understand the problem
  now.  The _ctor.o file defines the __CTOR_LIST__ symbol as a common
  symbol (ie uninitialized).  These symbols can be overriden by a 
  definition that does define a value, which is why the linker scripts
  used to work in the past.  But the addition of the PROVIDE directive
  changed that, because PROVIDE will not override a common symbol.

  Hmm, I need to think about how to fix this.

  In the meantime please could you see if adding:

     -Wl,--defsym,__CTOR_LIST__=.ctors

  to your command line will act a workaround for the problem ?

Cheers
  Nick
