The last line here looks wrong. It should be someting like 10000000 (256
MB) or 20000000 (512 MB). Not AACC8A8B which is ~ 2732,783 MB.
I've noticed that this only works right with gcc < 4.1. It seemed like
they did change some things in ld.

Is there someone out there who can tell us, what we did wrong?
