We had one of the GCC developers look at the problem (Eric Botcazou), and he found out that gcc-3.4.x is creating some additional R/W ELF sections that the IRIX linker is not combining (gcc-3.3.x created one R/W and one R/O ELF section). He plans to look into this further. Hopefully we'll have a solution soon. It may need upgrading of unexelf.c in Emacs to handle more different sections.
