There should be no reason to use --gc-sections. As you discovered, it's
likely to remove material that it thinks is unused because the current
linker scripts are lying to it.
At least some of the lies will be corrected in a couple hours when I finish
moving all the development branches to be based on gcc 4.6.0 and push the
changes I have queued up locally, but nonetheless I'm unaware of any reason
to use that flag with mspgcc.
