Err, there should have been usable output.  The "-d" switch to objdump
means disassemble, so it should have shown you the .long statements.
The "-r" switch to objdump means that it should display the relocs, so
for each of those .long statements there should have been a reloc
indicating which symbol's value is being referenced.

That is quite an old version of GAS by the way.  We are now at version
2.12.1.  You might like to try downloading the latest sources and
building a new assembler and linker...

Is this an output from the assembler or the linker ?
