What about modifying the linker script so that all of bss is merged into the image, i.e. treat it like 'data'?

That would mean that you have to allocate flash memory for all this stuff, which is typically in the 100...150 kB range, i. e. you would double the memory footprint of U-Boot in flash memory.,

No, this is NOT acceptable. Don't even think of it.
