Eric Norum (cc'ed) recently narrowed it down to this construct:

=============================================================
A little poking around reveals that it's the lines like:

_RamBase = DEFINED(_RamBase) ? _RamBase : 0x0;
_RamSize = DEFINED(_RamSize) ? _RamSize : 0x7f0000;
_HeapSize = DEFINED(_HeapSize) ? _HeapSize : 0;   /* 0x20000;*/
_StackSize = DEFINED(_StackSize) ? _StackSize : 1M; /* 0x2000;*/

that are killing ld.
==============================================================

Does this sound familiar?

I was able to get the above to work removing -Wl,-Map=$(basename $@).map from the linker options. It appears that the act of producing the map file is what is breaking the above constructs!
