See the attached perl script to generate and compile a program that 
triggers the problem.  It is very parametrized since I had trouble to 
find what triggers the problem, and the result was that more than one 
main object file makes the problem appear.

I also filed a gcc bug c++/7506 on this one, but I haven't heard 
anything about it.

I debugged the ld a bit and the error message is valid--it is trying to 
generate a 33 bit offset.
