Greetings,

Some background info first
I am trying to write an LKM device driver for an ADC PC104 card. The
SBC is the TS7200 (an SBC based on EP9302).

But before dive into the actual driver I wanted to test my environment
so I managed to compile the fibonacci module from
http://home.unix-ag.org/bmeurer/NetBSD/howto-lkm.html

The SBC runs NetBSD3.0 with LKM on

Here is the problem

when I try to load the compiled module I get the following error



arm# modload -e fibo_lkmentry -p fibo_post.sh fibo.o
ld: internal error: aborting at
/home/builds/ab/netbsd-3-0-RELEASE/src/gnu/dist/binutils/ld/ldlang.c
line 3835 in lang_place_orphans
ld: please report this bug
modload: can't prelink `fibo.o' creating `fibo'
arm#

Has anyone seen such a thing ?
I get also similar output when I try to load a cross compiled fibo.o
build on an i386...

Below is the output from the compile

arm# make
#   compile  LKM/main.o
cc -O2 -ffreestanding  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes
