Description Patrick Oppenlander 2011-04-08 06:00:53 UTC 
gold doesn't recognise modifiers on memory LENGTH attributes e.g.

MEMORY {
    flash (rx) :    ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 2M
    ram (wiax) :    ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 512k
}

error: syntax error, unexpected STRING, expecting ':'

I'm pretty sure bfd ld also supports mathematical expressions here such as 2 * 1024 * 1024.
