Dear Po-Yu Chuang,

Could you use objdump to check what is the symbol name for end of BSS defined by ppc toolchain? I don't have the environment now.
It appears there is no default value used - we get what we define in the linker scripts, and (apparently) nothing else.
It seems that we need to find a symbol name globally accepted by all toolchains of all platform. If we rename it to another name careless, we might get the same problem on another platform. Or maybe we can just rename the one used in standalone examples back to _end?
I don;t really understand what's going on there on ARM - see my RC patch.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
