This makes modules closer to each other, so,
net/socket.c:348: relocation truncated to fit: R_AVR32_11H_PCREL against
`.text'+2930

But still the module is too big for AVR to do some jumps.

completely, burden to support is just increasing (no Buildroot support,
no Gcc support, what else do we need?) for no value.
