I started hunting a bug this evening that caused ld to dump core 
sometimes; like when compiling rbootd or xsetroot. This turned out
to be a bug generated by gcc; merely the way it handles bitfields:

If there is a bitfield struct of size 4 bytes, and bit 22 is referenced
gcc will generate something like "rotl $31,2(r0)" if the bitfield address
is in r0. This will cause bytes 2-5 to be referenced but only byte 0-3
is legal, so a segmentation fault will occur.

If anyone like to teach gcc to DTRT i would be very happy :-) I think
it looks like an odd way of doing this instead of using extzv.
