Umm.. I think I worked out what was a reasonable value for SIZEOF_HEADERS and substituted it. The build succeeds and runs fine on our MPC8560 board.
Replacing a Builtin Function which is supposed to return the correct size of the output file's headers by a hardwired value which just happens to be correct in one case is definitely not acceptable, not even as a temporary workaround.
Simply don't use tools that are broken on such a basic level. And if you want to use them, so either bug the binutils folks iuuintil they fix it, or fix it yourself. But don;t break perfectly legal and working code.
