Aaron,
Thanks for taking the time to look at my issue.

I am building my app with myapp-sections.s file. The $(OBJS) variable
contains myapp-sections.o.
I included the mapfile as shown in the prc-tools manual (below). The
definitions of the functions are in header files which are included in
the appropriate places in the app so that they are visible. I annotated
the definitions of the functions I want in the new section with
"__attribute__ ((section ("section1")))". Is there anything else I
should be doing in addition to this?
The prc-tools instructions I followed were:
.... " 4. Add rules to your Makefile to generate and build the assembler
stub and linker script.
myapp-sections.o: myapp-sections.s
m68k-palmos-gcc -c myapp-sections.s
myapp-sections.s myapp-sections.ld: myapp.def
m68k-palmos-multigen myapp.def " ....
I included both these rules in my makefile.
.... " 5. Link the assembler stub into your bfd executable, and use the
linker script to place the extra code sections at appropriate addresses.
OBJS = ...list of object files... myapp-sections.o
myapp: $(OBJS) myapp-sections.ld
m68k-palmos-gcc -o myapp $(OBJS) myapp-sections.ld "
....
I added the myapp-sections.o to my OBJS variable and included
myapp-sections.ld in the build.
