Hi Mike,

  This was an interesting one.  It turns out that using the word "stub" at the
start of your variable was significant.  With -fdata-sections enabled the
variable was placed into a section called .data.rel.local.stub_foo which
confused the linker into thinking that it was a special section for containing
other stubs.

  I have uploaded a patch which should fix the problem by choosing a name for
the stub section suffix which is not valid as the start of the name of a C
variable.  (Ie "__stub").  Please can you try it out and let me know if it
works for you.

Cheers
  Nick
