Try the following gcc fix:

 }
 

This is in GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS. It should be sufficient to just
not go if it not a legitimate address. The abort is pointless. I've
got a make check running with this change at the moment, and if it
doesn't throw up any surprises, I'll put in a patch to the gcc people.

You may be having a problem with N magic and relocation addresses. I
had success with ZMagic and changing TEXTADDR.

This is part of a patch which I submitted some time back but was never applied:

Note the comment which says that the extra 0x20 bytes offset only
happens with ZMagic. However, I have no idea if NMagic will work. The
-z flag is not respected by the new loader, but is not needed. It is
the default for old and new.
