Hi,

I tried to compile Linux-2.6.18.8 for MIPS24KE
processor using cross-compiler built from gcc-4.2.1,
binutils-2.17 and uClibc-0.9.27. But, the compilation
failed with below error message ("mips-linux-ld: final
link failed: Bad value"):
================================


The likely cause is:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33755
As indicated in the PR, Richard has a patch that he is testing. I would think that by the time gcc-4.2.3 is released that it would be fixed.
I would recommend using a non-4.2.x version of gcc until the problem is fixed.
