Your assembler is very badly screwed.  That is the fundamental relocation 
type for a "bl" instruction; all arm assemblers know how to support it, so 
you must somehow be not targeting the assembler cleanly.

Does configuring the tools for arm-netbsd (note, not arm-aout-netbsd) make 
a difference (I'm just guessing here, I've nothing concrete to go on).
