Getting the TCP/IP stack plus the PPP add-on into the default RAM
configuration is a bit of a squeeze. Of the 512k, only 384k is
actually available for applications, this isn't quite enough for
TCP/IP+PPP code+data.

Since you actually have more RAM, you need to modify the
mlt_arm_at91_eb40_ram.ldi and mlt_arm_at91_eb40_ram.h files to be
aware of the extra RAM, then it will link.
