The nitty-gritty stuff I already posted at
http://bugs.gentoo.org/sh=ow_bug.cgi?id=226335 , but to summarize: I found
reports of similar bugs in other packages and a report of the same in the
previous version of binutils: 2.17. I wrote a patch targeted at
binutils/gas/configure.tgt .
Just in case

I forgot to explicitly mention, that it is a build related bug.

Should creating
If you have a 64-bit executable with a section whose address starts at higher
than 0x, the output of a 32-bit size program that targets 64-bit
executables will be wrong:
$ cat test.c
void _start() { }
$ gcc -nostdlib -fPIC -ffreestanding test.c -Wl,-Ttext,0x1
$ x86_64-linux-size -A
