Not enough room for program headers (allocated 7, need 8)

I'll handle this.

State-Changed-Why:
This is a lame and long-standing bug in GNU binutils. If you complain to
them loudly enough, they might fix it, but that's not too likely. (They
will just tell you that -Tdata doesn't make sense in ELF, which is
nonsense, and tell you to use a linker script, which is a pain.) If
skrll wants to fix it, great, but realistically that probably isn't going
to happen.

 It's fixed in binutils 2.18

 I was going to close this when/if I imported a newer bintuils.
