The big hole had nearly MAXPAGESIZE bytes, which is surely not intented
(especially when text size is much smaller than that).

Here's the text/data boundary:

  [18] .eh_frame         PROGBITS        00000000000088e8 0088e8 000cac 00   A  0   0  8
  [19] .ctors            PROGBITS        000000000010a370 00a370 000010 00  WA  0   0  8

Without the patch section .ctors is placed at 0x100ddc, giving a wastage
of 1010284 bytes in the file, which is more than 26 times the text segment
size.
