[Bug ld/5785] New: Spurious "section xxx overlaps section yyy"

[osv at javad dot com]

LD version 2.18.x produces bogus "section .xxx overlaps section .bss", while LD
version 2.16.1 works just fine. Here is cut-down test to reproduce the problem:

$ echo -n | ~/try/bin/sparc-elf-as -o test.o
$ ~/try/bin/sparc-elf-ld -v -o test -T test.lnk test.o
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.18.50.20080218
/home/osv/try/bin/sparc-elf-ld: section .xxx [00000110 -> 0000011f] overlaps
section .bss [00000110 -> 0000022f]
$ cat test.lnk
MEMORY
{
  ROM    : ORIGIN = 0,      LENGTH = 0x1000
  RAM    : ORIGIN = 0x4000, LENGTH = 0x1000
}

SECTIONS
{
  .data : AT(__data_image) {
    . += 0x110;
  } > RAM

  .bss : {
    . += 0x120;
  } > RAM

  .data_image (NOLOAD): {
    __data_image = .;
    . += SIZEOF(.data);
  } > ROM

  .xxx : {
    . += 0x10;
  } > ROM

  .text : { *(.text) } > ROM
}
$
