^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Bug here. All objects you link into PIEs must contain
position independent code, at least on arches which don't support it
(e.g. IA-32 supports position dependent code in PIEs, at the expense
of DT_TEXTREL, although it is not recommended).
Ie. either -fpie, -fPIE, -fpic or -fPIC.

					        ^^^^^^^^^^^
another bug here.  PIEs should use crtbeginS.o.  There are other
crt files you need, so you really should use gcc -pie -o test test.o.

This is linker bug.  It shouldn't segfault even on buggy input.
