On a side note, I do not know of a clear general definition of 'bisectability', which means I could break it yet again unkonwingly. Can you (or anyone, actually :) ) point me to a, or even the, standard definition of 'bisectable' and, if that has a specific meaning, of 'fully bisectable'?
Here's a decent LWN.net article on the topic:

Thanks Rogan.
Actually I do know the git bisect command, having had to use it to track a boot issue in recent linux kernel versions; I should have made it clear that I was looking specifically for the meaning of 'bisectable' -- which you have clarified, thanks again.
So in this specific case, I guess what I should do is look up Heiko's patch series, see which arm926 boards it makes relocation-capable, and apply the .lds fx to those. The other arm926 boards, which were left untouched by Heiko, would not build with his patches anyway, so there is no real point in fixing them yet. Or is there?
So unless some strong disagreement is voiced, I'll prepare a V3 patch set which will be V2 + possible fixes stemming from Heiko's and Ben's test feedback + fixes to the .lds of boards which are made relocation capable in Heiko's patch series.
Amicalement,
