Nope that gives the same result :-(

$ arm-elf-gcc *.o -L /i/eCOSbuilds/a163_install/lib/ -Ttarget.ld -nostdlib
-Xlinker -Map -Xlinker mapfile.txt -mlong-calls
main.o: In function `main':
main.o(.text+0x10): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_PC24
flash_query(void)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

what is ld trying to tell me with the truncated error message?  I note that
this is in the function main NOT flash_query, is this significant?
