incremental link does not work with static vars

[Alexander Smishlajev]

when i try to link incrementally (ld -r) sources with static variables
defined, i get following errors:

MORESUBS.o(.bss+0x400000):bugd.c: multiple definition of `_bss_start__'
SUBS.o(.bss+0x400000):bugb.c: first defined here
MORESUBS.o(.bss+0x400004):bugd.c: multiple definition of `_bss_end__'
SUBS.o(.bss+0x400004):bugb.c: first defined here
make: *** [all] Error 1

ld --version reports: GNU ld cygnus-2.8.1

the source that led to the problem is attached below.

is there any workaround available?

best wishes,
alex.
