This looks like a truncation to 32-bits rather than a more general 
miscalculation...

Have a look at the function coff_print_symbol() in bfd/coffgen.c.  This 
is the function that is printing out the incorrect value for .main.  My 
guess is that for some reason XCOFF64 is not defined for your 
configuration and so it is printing a 32-bit value instead of a 64-bit 
value.

Cheers
