gcc disobeys const qualifier

[Aaron J. Grier]

look at your linker script and make sure that read-only data is being
written into (and referenced from ROM.)  I use the following snippet in
my linker script:

	.rodata : {
		_rodata_start = . ;

		*(.rodata)
		*(.rodata.*)
		*(.gnu.linkonce.r*)
		*(.rodata1)

		. = ALIGN (4);
		_erodata = . ;
	} > rom

this creates a new section called .rodata and puts all read-only data
segments into it.
