Sure, I filed a GCC bugzilla with a sample code file that exhibits the cross-segment symbol issue. https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=83013 There was also an older bug I saw before filing the above which might be the same issue though I have not verified that. Just looking at the .s files from the linked binutils issue appears to show the same issue however with .rodata instead of .sdata2. https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63261 Regards, Nathan
