The name clashes with the linker-defined _end symbol that indicates the end of the build program itself. Even when there is no compile-time error, this causes build to use memory past the end of its .bss section. To solve this, mark _end as static, and for symmetry, mark the rest of the variables that keep track of symbols from the compressed kernel as static as well.
